The premise of Of Life and Love without spoilers.
The anthology follows four distinct stories: a jar repairman's intuition leads him into a vat where he becomes trapped; a young, unmarried mother must beg for money to purchase a fan; Rosario Chiarchiaro stands trial for practicing witchcraft; and a wedding witness, irritated by a too‑tight jacket, finds the resolve to convince the bridegroom’s hesitant parents to bless the union.
