- He was a bum named Otello. He spent the day begging his bread. He had only one love: Cinema. He knew all the cinemas in the city and he was friends with all the ushers that allowed him often to get free entrance to see his preferred pictures. He was an expert and knew the history of the Seventh Art very well. One rainy and cold evening, after he was wandering aimlessly searching for food, he got shelter in a cinema room to warm up and to see the preview of his preferred director's last movie...
- Omero, a former teacher who has just retired, decides to leave Rome, where he taught for 30 years and to get back to Sicily, the place where he was born. Alice, his eight year old grand-daughter, goes with him: she wants to visit her parents' homeland. The pair get to Naples by train and visit Orlando, Omero's brother, a vaudeville actor, who is still performing and who introduces them to the people working with him. The day after they get on the train to Reggio Calabria to catch the ferry to Sicily. When they get to Messina, they continue their journey by bus, after a circus show, which leaves the little girl overawed by the brightness of the performing children. Traveling together under the scorching Sicilian sun and meeting strange characters, the pair relationship gets stronger. Their final destination is a little village near Palermo: but nothing is the same for the old man, who decides to go back to Rome and be a grand-father to the little girl, who is very happy about the decision.
- Marco De Vally, a young decayed aristocrat and poet, has been found dead in his room. Suicide or murder ? Police inspector Fabio Russo starts his investigations from a short poem the victim was writing: IL PINO AZZURRO (The blue pine tree), which contains some obscure hints at famous and important people. Other alarming clues are given by Luca Porri, the victim's disquieting and somehow mad psychoanalyst, and Sarah Pierce, Marco's former lover, who put P.I. on the track of a colossal traffic in arms and drug. Eventually, the scandal breaks out: several politicians and financiers are arrested and charged with trafficking in arms and drug and with Marco's murder, which they confess even if the actual killer can't be found. When P.I. Russo hits on Marco's farewell letter announcing his suicide for Sarah's unrequited love, he throws it away.
