Synopsis
In the small Sicilian fishing village of Aci-Trezza, the Valastra family continues the village's long fishing tradition. Despite poverty and hard work, the village accepts its lot, but tensions mount when Antonio Valastra returns from the war and alienates some of the villagers with his suggestions for altering their working habits. When Antonio challenges the actions of the fish merchants, he is arrested and jailed -- but not before impressing many of the villagers, who also long for change.
