A doctor in the family

Season 5

2007 • 26 Episodes

Season 5

The story picks up approximately three years after the season four finale. Lele lives in Paris, where he has become a university professor. Turinese doctor Emilio Villari, engaged to Alba, the daughter of Gualtiero, a cynical entrepreneur and longtime acquaintance of Enrica, arrives at the Martini household. An Indian family arrives in the neighborhood. There's Kabir, a traditionalist Hindu, a middle-aged man and grandfather of three grandchildren: Sarita, a doctor specializing in homeopathy who nevertheless lives by Western values, and the young Sadju and Sumede, the same age as Ciccio and Annuccia, respectively. Emilio has to open a semi-private health center in Rome: his future father-in-law tells him he can't immediately return to Turin because he must stay to supervise the proper functioning of the new healthcare facility. Only in the fifth season does Poggio Fiorito cease to be a neighborhood and become an autonomous municipality.
