Summary:

Following the death of their mother, two brothers are separated when quite young. The older, to be raised by his indigent grandmother; the younger, to be adopted by a titled family in Sicily. They reconnect when one brother learns that he has incurable tuberculosis, and we see if blood bonds are stronger than the vicissitudes of life.
