Magic, drama, misery and hope are given life in five tales adapted from Luigi Pirandello's Novelle per un anno. The other son: A mother spends her life waiting for news from her two sons while ignoring her third, because he is the reincarnation of the bandit who raped her. Moonsickness: A newly-wed peasant girl discovers that her husband goes mad every full moon. She arranges for a male friend to protect her, but they end up in bed together just as the moon emerges from behind a cloud. The jar: A rich landowner hires a master craftsman to repair a giant olive jar, but the craftsman gets trapped inside. Requiem: Villagers band together in an attempt to force their landlord to let them bury their dead. The crow of Mízzaro: A strong, poetic vision of Sicilian life
