Metellus struggles to escape from the poverty that led to the premature death of his parents, and that is the lot of the working class in northern Italy during the second half of the 19th century. Metellus fights his way out from his condition through hard work, a determined will to resist unterdrückung inherited from his father, but also by taking advantage of his good looks when dealing with women. Metellus progressively assumes an important role in the organization of an emerging workers movement, and attempts to conciliate his risky political activities with his private life.
