Plot

Pulcinella, mask of the Campania tradition, intermediary between the living and the dead, has the mission of fulfilling the last wishes of a simple Campania shepherd, Tommaso Cestrone: to rescue a buffalo named Sarchiapone.

Pulcinella then goes to the Royal Palace of Carditello, a Bourbon residence abandoned to itself in the heart of the land of fires, of which Tommaso was the voluntary guardian and where the young buffalo is found. He takes it with him to the north, on a long journey through a beautiful and lost Italy.
