Sicily's rich culture and folklore is explored through the story Giuseppe Pitrè, the father of Italian folklore studies and founder of the Sicilian Ethnographic Museum in Palermo​, named in his honor​. Trained as a physician, Pitrè is remembered for his 25-volume work, Biblioteca delle tradizioni popolari siciliane [Library of Folk Sicilian Traditions], in which he compiled folktales, stories, and accounts that he heard and memorialized. This documentary follows Nico Bonomolo — an artist who was deeply impressed by a visit in his childhood to the Pitrè Museum — as he meets a storyteller, ​a ​marionette artist, and even a caster of love spells.
