Plot summary
At Villa Rosa in Palermo, Sicilian magnate Don Roberto Luciano and his wife Graziella live with their sons. Michael, one of the sons, has an affair with Sophia, who becomes pregnant but unmarried. When Roberto refuses to traffic drugs, U.S. mob boss Carolla retaliates by having Michael killed. At a convent, another pregnant woman tells Sophia of his death, and she gives birth to Michael's son. Determined to keep the boy, she travels alone to the Luciano villa to ask the family for money. Guards turn her away until Constantino, one of Michael's brothers, brings her inside, and Graziella nurses her. She and Constantino fall in love, but the family knows nothing of her past with Michael or of her child. Roberto objects to her poverty, and Graziella works to change his mind.
