In Montreal, Canada, an association of first- and second-generation Italian immigrants is organizing a celebration for the patron saint of their hometown: Larino, in Molise. Vincent is the association's president and has been working for years to keep the tradition alive. Claire recently discovered she is originally from Larino and is conducting genealogical research on her family. Franco and Pina live in a residential neighborhood and dream of one day returning to Italy. Meanwhile, in Larino, preparations for the feast of San Pardo are in step with the rhythms of nature.
