Description

The Night Falling is set in Puglia, Italy, in 1921. Leandro returns home as a wealthy man accompanied by his glamorous American wife, determined to make his mark. But questions loom about how he gained his wealth and what burdens haunt his outwardly exuberant spouse.

Boyd, a quiet English architect, is hired to construct Leandro's dreams. Yet, why is he so fearful of Leandro, and what transpired between them years ago in New York?

Clare, Boyd’s self-effacing wife, arrives in Puglia with her stepson, initially desperate to depart. However, she soon discovers a compelling reason to remain.

Ettore, starved and impoverished while grieving for his lost fiancée, is too proud to seek assistance from his Uncle Leandro. Yet, circumstances conspire to force his hand.

Tensions escalate as post-Great War poverty drives veterans to the brink of rebellion. Under the searing sky, a reckless love and violent enmity will unveil brutal truths...
