Giuseppe Pitrè loved attending performances of chivalric folk plays in Palermo. This segment follows a marionette player at Palermo's Opera dei Pupi, the same theater where Pitrè went to see folk epics.

Palermo faces the sea and has a very long history of immigration. The narrator interviews a young woman whose great grandfather came to Sicily from Sudan. She is involved in educating immigrants from Africa and Asia. Pitrè was also highly involved in education.

A Palermo doctor is interviewed about his practice and the African and Southeast Asian immigrant patients that he treats.

A Palermo doctor discusses the Integration of immigrants in Sicily and highlights the successes in healthcare. Medical assistance is provided for all immigrants, whether lawful or not.

The documentary comes to a close with an interview regarding a prison cell used during the Inquisition. The cell bears the graffiti of its inmates. Pitrè had laboriously uncovered the graffiti, but it was only rediscovered in the 1970s by the writer Leonardo Sciascia and the interviewee in this segment, Giuseppe Quatriglio, who used Pitrè's writing to find it.

Eleonora tells us about how she combines her love for animals, especially horses, with a path to a career.

Eleonora introduces us to her two horses. She tells the story of how they came to be part of her life.

Horses are large animals, but they are delicate, too. Keeping them healthy and in good condition requires a series of essential measures of different kinds. Eleonora takes us through some of them.

Erica takes us back to the time when prehistoric man first discovered that fire was not just something to fear, as was the case with animals, but something he could make use of, and later, something he could produce.

Discovering fire had a huge influence on the daily life of prehistoric man. Erica describes perhaps the earliest technique they used for making fire, and goes on to tell us about a famous mummy.

Erica shows us the various parts of so-called "tinder fungus" and then demonstrates how to prepare it for lighting a fire using a sharp flintstone.

We finally get to producing the fire itself, using tools found in nature. It's not easy at all, but when you finally succeed, it can be pretty exciting and satisfying.

Francesco is in the Province of Avellino and talks to us about one of the Campania Region's most important archaeological sites: the Norman Castle of Avella, destroyed and rebuilt numerous times, but well preserved nonetheless.

The excursion to the Castle of Avella continues and we see the preserved walls of this historic place. Places such as this are common in Campania, thanks to the numerous civilizations that passed through this region in earlier times.

Mothers Day is approaching. Four mothers (including our Marika!) give us their thoughts on what it means to be a mother.
