Good-hearted, but not very worldly-wise, Dante is happy driving a school bus, while feeling he is somehow missing out on life and love. So he is very excited when, after nearly being knocked down by her car, he meets Maria, who seems immediately enamored of him. He is soon invited to her sumptuous Palermo villa, little suspecting that this is part of a plot. He bears an amazing likeness to Maria’s stool-pigeon gangster husband and it would be convenient for them if the mobster, in the shape of Dante, was seen to be dead and buried.
