In southern Italy, Mary, a young woman bound to criminal Nunzio, wants out of their toxic relationship but fears the repercussions. Her love affair with Giulio, a new riding instructor, drives her to find courage. Despite warnings from Michele, her childhood friend and Nunzio’s partner, Mary chooses love with Giulio. Nunzio, feeling betrayed, plots revenge. A story of love and blood where the real subversive and renewing elements seem to be love and friendship.

Italian film directed by Pierluigi Ferrandini. On the night of May 26, 1956, a terrible bloody event occurred within the home. In Bari at the dawn of the economic boom, the twenty-six-year-old Franco Percoco, coming from a "normal" lower middle class family, carried out a family massacre - the first after the war to have great media coverage - and was consigned to the news as the "Monster of Bari ".

In a time of financial precariousness and descent into poverty, two brothers in Apulia lose everything they own.

We are in a beautiful southern family, united by a deep relationship, despite some misunderstandings: Franco, a father who has dedicated his life to his loved ones and to work.
