   The change occurs not only within the family Valastro, but also throughout the village there is a separation, since the fact that this family take the initiative, makes people think they are doing something against the regime.

   All Valastros prepare, women wear black, as in the entire film, and puts their head scarves, walking through the village towards the bus that would take them to the city of Catania. Seeing Valastros pass, the population is somewhat Acitrezza incomudada, as if to hurt this poor family. The arrival of this family, with good news, again to the village, was not accepted by the population. N'toni out the street talking to people who will respond: "The workhorse is with the mania of greatness."

   Getting your mortgage only property, home, family Valastro out to sea with his new boat and for the first time, working on their own. Generates a hope here is almost reached, could only hope that the sea was generous.

   As a metaphor for a world of magic, this time the sound becomes off when they start their fishing for the first time, unlike the first part, where each time the fishermen to enter or leave the sea, the bell rang. This time it does not happen, as if they were discriminated against, to the level of own religion. Moreover, Visconti back to join the exploitation of fishermen to the bell, because this is the first time that Valastros go to sea because propia not have the "blessing" of the bell.

   Not only at work but also in love, goes to visit N'toni Nedda, his passion, as is becoming a rich man helps him on his achievement. Therefore, Mara, sister N'toni, separates itself from Nicola as a rich girl does not approach a simple bricklayer.
