Martino is a young Neapolitan, lazy and disillusioned, who lives in Switzerland with his sister Catherine. An accident immobolizes his young sister who is then in need of very expensive constant care. Martino has no other option but to work as a janitor at Dr. William Gioia’s practice, who’s a mental coach that specializes in urging people’s thoughts by positive thinking and actions. In the absence of Dr. Gioia, Martin takes the opportunity and pretends to be his assistant. One of his first patients will be the famous skating champion Arianna Croft who, after a horrible fall on the ice, has lost complete confidence in her ability and love for the sport. The problem is that the European skating championships are just around the corner. Will Martino be able to do it, in the unaccustomed role of Mr. Happiness, and between misunderstandings and unexpected revelations, to once again get Arianna to be the champion she previously was?
