Bussenghi is a frontier worker who is always late for work because of the Swiss border guard Bernasconi. In an ironic twist, the two enemies are forced to coexist 24 hours a day. In addition to bickering about the differences between Swiss and Italian mentalities, the two come to realize that they need each other in order to settle their own problems and to get out of the predicaments they have gotten themselves into.
Bussenghi è un frontaliere che arriva sempre in ritardo al lavoro a causa della guardia di confine svizzera Bernasconi. Per ironia della sorte i due nemici dovranno coesistere 24 su 24 e, oltre che a punzecchiarsi sulla diversità di mentalità tra svizzeri e italiani, si rendono conto di avere bisogno uno dell’altro per sistemare i propri problemi e per uscire dai guai in cui si sono cacciati.
