Roberto Rossellini directs this Italian drama set during the last days of the Nazi occupation of Italy during World War II. Resistance leader Giorgio Manfredi (Marcello Pagliero) flees the Gestapo and searches for a place to hide with the help of his friend Francesco (Francesco Grandjacquet), his pregnant fiancée Pina (Anna Magnani) and the priest who is due to marry them, Don Pietro Pellegrini (Aldo Fabrizi). When Giorgio's former girlfriend Marina (Maria Michi) betrays him and his fellow fighters to the Gestapo, the local police soon find him and Don Pietro and they face imprisonment and torture.
