Luciano lives as a wandering drunkard in a village of Tuscia, in Italy. Spiteful actions ensue between him and the local prince over the right of passage through a gateway. Fueled by passions and jealousy, Luciano commits the unforgivable. Now an unfortunate criminal, Luciano is exiled to the distant Tierra del Fuego where, with the help of ruthless gold-diggers, he searches for a mythical treasure, paving his way towards redemption. In Italy, today, some elderly hunters reminisce about the tale of Luciano.
