Voting against the Mafia in what he thinks is a secret ballot costs Sicilian laborer Mimi (Giancarlo Giannini, Man on Fire, Quantum of Solace) his livelihood in Lina Wertmuller's (Swept Away) dark comedy. He leaves his wife, flees to Turin and romances a Communist organizer (Mariangela Melato, SweptAway, Flash Gordon) -- but he just can't shake the Mafia. When they lure Mimi back to Sicily with a better job, he must keep his lover -- and love child -- under wraps. That's when his wife announces she's pregnant.

Mimi, un manœuvre sicilien, refuse de se plier à la foi de la mafia. Privé de travail, il s`expatrie, laissant sa femme Rosalia en Sicile. À Turin, Mimi ne tarde par à être à nouveau contacté par l`Organisation et comprenant le danger, il se fait plus coopératif. Promu métallo, puis contremaître, il tombe amoureux fou de Fiorella avec qui il a un fils. C`est alors que la mafia le rapatrie en Sicile où Rosalia l`attend...
