Bianchi is traveling to Sicily for the first time. In the train, he meets a typical family of the island: a couple, who wont stop talking or annoying the traveler, with their children, impudent and restless, and the young woman who travels with them, reserved, shy, but circumspect. Bianchi, attentive to the reality that unfolds before his eyes, sharply portrays Sicilian society and its contradictions.
