A band travels by bus to the next town festival. Vituccia plucks petals off of roses, puts them in the freezer, and sits down to wait for the Madonna. When she sees the Virgin Mary arriving at the end of the street, she will walk toward her, scattering petals. Raffaele, an idealist who helps carry statues of the Virgin Mary in the processions, battles against pedestrians and cars to defend his San Rocco and against time to preserve the popular significance of feast days.
