New Jersey, U.S. Dean Barry, an American veteran who got involved with a young woman from Naples during the Second World War, returns to Italy in the early 1970s to meet his son in the same city. Dean would like to make it up to him for being out of his life for twenty-five years, but his son is a man now: he grew up with the mob, was adopted by a mob boss and smuggler, and has no interest at all in his American father.
