    • A love story set in July '43 when Allied forces landed in Sicily. Arturo loves Flora, daughter of a restaurant owner, but she has been promised in marriage to a Mafia boss. Arturo decides to join the Allied forces and return to Sicily, which he had left in search of fortune in America. In the background a clever narrative of how relations between Allies and the Mafia during World War II shaped the fate of Sicily in years to come.
