After losing his parents to the bubonic plague, ten-year-old Tonino finds himself apprenticed to his uncle in a small goldsmith's studio located on a bridge in Venice. However, as the Black Death infiltrates his uncle's workshop, young Tonino is forced to confront a difficult decision in order to survive.
