Twenty years after their initial war-time visit three American servicemen plan to visit Italy again to hold a reunion in a small village - each intending to see their daughter. They all have fond memories, especially of the local girl Carla Campbell. But she has been telling each of them that they are the father of her daughter Gia, so they all have been paying well for her upbringing. As this dawns on the threesome old rivalries surface, but times have changed and complications such as wives, middle-age, and the need to protect Gia's future, start to surface.
