Rails tears and blood follows the life of Luigi, a young Italian immigrant who leaves behind his hometown of Moiano for a new life in America. Driven by the promise of opportunity, Luigi works tirelessly on the railroad in the Appalachian Mountains, laying tracks and enduring the brutal conditions of labor. As he struggles with homesickness and the challenges of his new life, Luigi becomes entangled in a forbidden love with Betty, a local woman whose affection is constrained by societal expectations and secrets. Haunted by memories of his military service in the failed Italian campaign in Abyssinia, Luigi distances himself from the looming call to arms during World War I. Over time, his dedication and resilience earn him a position of respect on the worksite. Yet, the weight of personal sacrifice, lost love, and unspoken connections shape his journey. In 1920, after years of toil, Luigi decides to return to Italy, carrying with him the silent scars of his experience. Back in Moiano, he attempts to reconcile his past and rebuild his life, forever marked by the bittersweet memories of a land that gave and took so much. The story weaves themes of migration, identity, love, and the search for belonging, set against the backdrop of early 20th-century struggles and societal divides.
