Synopsis
Ischiano Scalo, un pueblecito de cuatro casas junto a una marisma llena de mosquitos, es el escenario en que se desarrollan dos tormentosas historias de amor. Una es la de Pietro y Gloria, dos chiquillos; ella es hija de un director de banco; él, de un pastor psicópata; ella es guapa, segura y algo arrogante; él, tímido, irresoluto, soñador. Y, a pesar de todo, un extraño sentimiento, que se parece curiosamente al amor, los atrae. La otra historia es la de Graziano Biglia, un playboy venido a menos que ha regresado a Ischiano tras años de ausencia y que se enamora de Flora, una mujer sola y misteriosa con la que todo el mundo guarda distancias en el pueblo.
