Umberto D. Plot and Cast
After attending a protest for higher old-age pensions, Umberto Domenico Ferrari comes home to his boarding house, where the landlady insists on 15,000 lire for rent by the end of the month or he and his small dog will be put out on the street. With no way to raise the money in time, Umberto pretends to be ill so he can be sent to a hospital, and he entrusts his beloved dog to the landlady's pregnant, abandoned maid for temporary safekeeping.
