Quotes
Giovanni: [narrating - part of a letter he's writing back home in reply to Liliana] What beautiful letters you write, dear Liliana. You're so good at expressing yourself. I'm not as good, and I often can't say everything I feel. But I'm sure you understand me just the same, because the feelings you express are the same ones I feel. You speak for both of us.

The perfect couple

The love of a worker for his fiancée is rekindled after a long separation. The poor state of the economy in Sicily and the upheaval of its industry provides the backdrop to this touching love story. Somewhat drawn out and clumsy, however.
