The movie tells the story of Toni Caramușat, a famous film director, fascinated by the idea of finding the 13th fundamental truth about the Aromanians. First 12 truths were gathered by linguist Matilda Caragiu Marioțeanu in her Dodecalogue of the Aromanians. According to myth, the 13th truth is held by Armãnamea, the last descendant of this people. In the movie, Toni goes on dates with young women from all over the world, in hope of finding both the truth and his soul mate.

The film won the "Maestrale Unica" award, a medal by the Italian Parliament, and the distinction of the European Parliament for best representation of a linguistic minority in Europe at the 2013 Babel Film Festival.[3][4][5]
