In the Sicily of the late 1940s, two brother sculptors, tired of selling madonnas to the local churches, finally realize their dream, and set up a Sicilian production company, thanks to the help of a local bishop. They start producing one box-office failure Z-movie after the other, all with terribly bad local non-pros as actors. Covered in debts, they finally have their great chance, when a local nobleman obsessed by magic decides to invest all his wealth in the making of a movie about Cagliostro, just one year after Orson Welles' Black Magic (1949). They hire a famous American actor (Robert Englund) and start shooting "The Return of Cagliostro".

Il rinvenimento fortuito delle pizze del film "Il ritorno di Cagliostro" è il pretesto per narrare la storia dei fratelli La Marca e della loro casa di produzione cinematografica Trinachia, nata nel 1947 per far concorrenza a Cinecittà e dar vita a una "Little Hollywood siciliana".

Сицилия, конец 1940-х годов. Два брата-скульптора решают открыть свою кинокомпанию. Один из местных богачей соглашается вложить деньги в производство картины «Возвращение Калиостро». И непрофессиональные режиссеры берутся за дело.
