In the small town of Scandriglia, Governor Dioscuro's daughter Barbara is more interested in astronomy than her father's ambitions. She embarks on a spiritual journey with friends Giuliana, Tito, Crio, and Claudio, a soldier, which transforms her life after her mother's death. Her newfound faith puts her at odds with the government, including Prefect Marciano, and her father, who disapproves of her choices.
