Pietramezzana, located high up in in the mountains of Southern Italy, is nearly a ghost town. Most of the young people have gone, leaving just a small group of ex-miners, unemployed after the closure of the local mine. But it suddenly seems that a new factory will soon open in the area. This could be the solution to all of the town’s problems, but there cannot be a factory without a local doctor, and the only physician around is a yuppie plastic surgeon from the North, who is stuck there just temporarily. Can the people of Pietramezzana convince him to stay?
