刚从大学毕业的查理怀着对欧洲的美好憧憬，没有计划但还是信心满满的去了没有朋友也没有落脚地的意大利。他对于新世界新朋友跃跃欲试，不惜任何代价推迟自己走向成年。过了没多久他就沦落到被黑手党追杀，还爱上了一个美丽的拥有自有灵魂的意大利女孩瓦伦蒂娜。经常流连在各种派对上，还结交了一个自称是博洛尼亚国王的莱勒。虽然查理才刚刚走出校园，但似乎他就要败给现实世界了，除非他能够真正承受得起这样的新生活。AmeriQua is the story of a lazy recent graduate, Charlie (Bobby Kennedy), whose rich parents cut him off with a $5000 check and an ultimatum to start a life of independence and responsibility. Instead, he buys a plane ticket to Italy, gets robbed upon arrival and winds up in Bologna in the care of his new friend Lele (Lele Gabellone), the self-proclaimed King of Bologna, who lives with a scraggly punkabbestia, Ballo (Gianlucca Bazzoli), and the insatiable prostitute frequenter, Il Pisa (Giuseppe Sanfelice). In Bologna, Lele teaches Chrlie the subtle strategies that the King knows so well, namely hitting on Italian women, throwing all-night parties and inciting general anarchy. Charlie takes to it like a pro and in the process meets the dangerously beautiful Valentina (Alessandra Mastronardi) and all-American Jessica (Eva Amurri).
