Summary: From case cover: Sicilia. Inizi del Novecento. Una decisione cambierà la vita di una famiglia intera: lasciarsi il passato alle spalle e iniziare una vita nuova nel Nuovo Mondo. Salvatore, è un uomo semplice, non va in cerca di grandi fortune, né di gloria, ma è guidato da una lucida consapevolezza: affrontare il lungo e pericoloso viaggio attraverso lóceano, per giungere a New York agli albori del XX secolo. Sull'enorme nave che li porta a New York Salvatore conosce Lucy, giovane donna inglese dai capelli rossi, che è stata rimandata indietro già una volta dagli Stati Uniti. Translated: Sicilia. Beginning of the twentieth century. A decision will change the life of a whole family: letting go past and starting a new life in the New World. Salvatore, is a simple man, does not seek great fortune or glory but is guided by a shrewd awareness: to face the long and dangerous journey through the ocean to reach New York at the dawn of the twentieth century. On the Big Ship That Brings them to New York Salvatore knows Lucy, a young, red-haired English woman who has been pushed back once by the United States. From IMDb: The story is set at the beginning of the 20th century in Sicily. Salvatore, a very poor farmer, and a widower, decides to emigrate to the US with all his family, including his old mother. Before they embark, they meet Lucy. She is supposed to be a British lady and wants to come back to the States. Lucy, or Luce as Salvatore calls her, for unknown reasons wants to marry someone before to arrive to Ellis Island in New York. Salvatore accepts the proposal. Once they arrive in Ellis Island they spend the quarantine period trying to pass the examinations to be admitted to the States. Tests are not so simple for poor farmers coming from Sicily. Their destiny is in the hands of the custom officers.
