Nicola and Andrea move to the United States seeking fortune due to the crisis that hit their father’s activity as an artisan and restorer. Once there, they have a chance encounter with a group of fellow countrymen working in the Italian pavilion at the Universal Expo in San Francisco, and through them they find work on the set of D.W. Griffith’s Intolerance. Their partners, Mabel and Edna, will help them become set designers on the massive production, but World War I is looming and will divide them for the first time. (Locarno Festival)
