From a desolate corner of Sicily, the Mancuso family, alongside hundreds of their countrymen, embark on a journey across time and vast space, impelled by pictures of a land dreamed of but never seen - an earthly paradise where fruits grow perfect and huge, and money falls from the trees. The New World, America. But not all are destined to enter the gates of Heaven. (official distributor synopsis)
