De cursus Italiaans op deze avondschool in Dublin lijkt in niets te verschillen van al die andere cursussen - behalve de verwachting en de dromen van de mensen in de wekelijkse bijeenkomsten. Aidan Dunne heeft zijn hele leven gewacht op zijn promotie tot schoolhoofd, die er niet kwam; nu probeert hij zijn zelfrespect te herwinnen. Signora, die drieëntwintig jaar geleden de man van haar dromen achterna ging, keert terug naar haar geboortestad. Samen nemen zij het initiatief tot een avondcursus die mensen met een zeer verschillende achtergrond aantrekt. Zij komen allemaal naar de avondschool, maar zij leren veel meer dan waarvoor zij gekomen zijn. Tegen de tijd dat de leerlingen op reis gaan naar Rome, is ieders leven dramatisch veranderd.
