In the industrial North, Giovanni is a skilled factory worker offered a promotion if he'll go to Sicily for 18 months to assist in a new department. His impending absence strains his already nearly wordless relationship with Liliana, his fiancée. They meet regularly at a dance hall and sometimes go riding on his motorcycle.

Do they have a future? 蓝领世界的安东尼奥尼。一般来讲，导出这种片子的王八蛋生儿子没屁眼！！。 剧情：一对情侣因为生活所迫分开，两人的感情也因此产生隔阂，当焦尼瓦调到西西里工作之后，他和女友丽莉亚娜不约而同地回忆起当年第一次相遇到相知的往事，遂而感情复燃，两人的心因为时空的距离而再次紧贴在一起……
