In a rural Italian village plagued by superstition and secrecy, a series of child murders sparks panic and suspicion among the residents. As an outsider journalist investigates, buried truths and dark impulses come to light, unraveling the facade of piety and innocence. The killer’s identity forces the community to confront its own moral corruption.
