Alla prima is a style of or approach to painting where the painting is finished in one session, working wet-on-wet instead of waiting for the paint to dry and building up colors by glazing. Quite how long a painting session is depends on the individual, but the limited time to complete the painting tends to encourage a looser style and decisiveness (and the use of smaller canvases!).
