MERY PER SEMPRE
A young teacher accepts a job considered by his colleagues to be a last ditch appointment - a post in the reform school at Rosapina. The place is hellish - a dumping ground for Palermo's Mafia-oriented underprivileged. Each of the boys has a savage story to relate. He tries to win the friendship and respect of them all and eventually wins them over.
