A young Caterina gazes across the Tyrrhenian Sea; her spirit is stirred as she holds communion with the sea breeze. At college, her physics master, Professor Russo, teaches her about the white stork and the principles of flight. Out of school, she is taught about sex by Stefano, boyfriend of beautiful Juliana. Rina leaves Italy for the London suburbs and a career in aviation. She marries, but it isn't long before her airline pilot husband strays. Her revenge is sweetly twisted. After a return to single life, Caterina's world pivots during a near-death experience.
