Transforming these boy, from disadvantaged backgrounds and responsible for a series of crimes, into athletes sounds like an impossible undertaking; one which is further threatened by the mafia who have been wanting to settle a score with Don Luca for some time.
Don Luca is arrested and there is an attack at the swimming pool, Alessandro takes the boys to train to the island of his birth: Alicudi. His goal is to have them participate in the Italian Championships. Swimming in the open sea miraculously matures the boys, both physically and emotionally.
