Enrica Maria Modugno

An Italian tailor is railroaded for the murder of a French Canadian, his best friend's son-in-law, in 1904 Montreal.

It is the Night of San Lorenzo, the night when dreams come true. While watching shooting stars, Cecilia tells her son about a similar night in 1944, when she was six years old and the residents of San Martino, her small Tuscan town, defied their Nazi occupiers.
