L'estate di quattro sorelle capeggiate da Gelsomina, la primogenita, l'erede del piccolo e strano regno che suo padre ha costruito per proteggere la sua famiglia dal mondo "che sta per finire". È un'estate straordinaria, in cui le regole che tengono insieme la famiglia si allentano: da una parte l'arrivo nella loro casa di Martin, un ragazzo tedesco in rieducazione, dall'altro l'incursione nel territorio di un concorso televisivo a premi, "il paese delle Meraviglie", condotto dalla fata bianca Milly Catena.

The Wonders (2014)
112 min
In the Tuscan countryside, a family of traditional honey farmers struggles to make ends meet. The household consists of only daughters—four of them—led by the eldest, Gelsomina, who takes on the responsibilities of the family. When a small boy is sent to stay with them for rehabilitation, their routine is disrupted. As financial troubles threaten their home, Gelsomina sees an opportunity in a reality TV contest searching for 'Italy’s Most Traditional Family.' Willing to expose their secluded life for the prize money, she clashes with her father’s rigid ways in a bid to secure their future.
