A Amiga Genial is the story of an encounter between two girls from a working-class neighborhood on the outskirts of Naples and their adolescent friendship. Elena meets her friend in the first grade. Both come from poor families. Elena's father works as a doorman at the town hall, Lila Cerullo's is a shoemaker. Lila is wild, shrewd, courageous in words and actions. She has a quick answer for everything and acts with a determination that the quiet and studious Elena envies. When the clumsy Lila transforms into a teenager who fascinates the boys in the neighborhood, Elena continues to look to her for inspiration. The path of both separates when, unlike Lila, Elena continues her high school studies and Lila has to fight for herself and her family in the neighborhood where she lives. But their friendship continues.
