This is a story about two brothers who leave Sicily and arrive to Turin during the 1950’s. Illiterate Giovanni works hard to enable his brother Pietro a good education and a better life. Pietro, on the other hand, does not like the school and prefers to start working. A murder occurs and brotherly love is put to the test... In 1998, this film won the Golden Lion in Venice.
