Serafina Delle Rose (Anna Magnanni) is an Italian-American widow who, after the death of her husband, shelters herself from the outside world and demands her daughter Rosa (Marisa Pavan) to do the same. However, her life takes an unexpected detour once Alvaro Mangiacavallo (Burt Lancaster), who happens to be a truck driver like her previous husband,"
