the demonstration of pensioners in the center of Rome also participates Umberto Domenico Ferrari ( Carlo Battisti), who was holding a leash and a muzzle. He brought the dog Flaik . The police intervened to disband the authority and the procession there will be a general stampede.
Umberto Flaik picks her up and takes refuge in a doorway with another senior. Now you can breathe and also Flaik is quiet. Umberto then go to the soup kitchen and does something wrong, hiding under the table Flaik passing his plate. Is criticized and it is said that if this continues it can no longer approach the table. 
Umberto lives in Via San Martino della Battaglia 14. It 's a senior Ministry of Public Works, his pension amounted to 18,000 lire a month, but not enough. Going home, sell his watch for 3,000 lire. A surprise awaits him: his rented room is occupied. Antonia the landlady (Lina Gennari ) was given in use fee an irregular pair. Umberto protest, but the owner takes his cue to say that Umberto has to pay the arrears. Umberto offers 3,000, but she refuses: she wants to pay everything at once. Umberto is unleashed with Mary, the maid ( Casile Maria Pia) who is a friend, but she has a problem, that of being pregnant. Do not know if the father of the unborn child is the military or Florence to Naples. The only Flaik is happy: it is fed, Umberto makes him play (instead of reading the book) can get on the bed of Humbert, the preferred place. There is an evening stroll: Umberto, fearing eviction, sells a good book kiosk that trades in used books. Give 2000 lire. Through Mary, who acts as his ambassador, offers 5,000 lire to the lady who continues to refuse: either pays for everything (I think between 10,000 and 15,000 pounds) or any eviction. A Umberto a fever that night. 
Umberto advantage of the fever to get to the hospital (where you do not spend anything). Before leaving with the porters, SPEGA one of them is better than face Flaik play with the ball, so the dog is distracted, otherwise, would be back. During the few days that Umberto go to the hospital, does not see Flaik, except once when Mary came to visit him and let Flaik one of the two soldiers that awaits the street. Umberto opens the window lane to be heard by Flaik, but protests from residents forced him to close immediately. 
nasty surprise for Humbert, leaving hospital: Flaik at home there. He realizes that the lady was leaving the door open, hoping to get rid of the dog first and then Umberto. Maria knows nothing, lost in his problems which can not go (also try a rudimentary attempt to abortion). Umberto took a taxi to rush to the municipal dog pound. Learns that dogs catching, if not the applicant has in a few days - which still must pay the fine - are eliminated with gas. With the latest arrival of the dogs taken that day, Umberto has the joy of finding Flaik. 
Before entering the house, Umberto take satisfaction: he sees the lady down the stairs with his friend ( Alberto Albani Barbieri ) and throw the dog at his feet. The masons are at work in the room, no longer his, what? 
Begging to passers-by, here. Umberto saw as some acquaintances of the soup kitchen: reaching out, but the shame is too much, can not do it to keep the palm open. But there Flaik! And here Flaik hat in hand in front of the Pantheon. Passing by a colleague Ministry of the scene and look wonderful. Umberto says that the dog is playing, the other looks at the dog and who knows what he thinks. No alms. 
Sitting on the bed covered by the newspapers - the masons working - Umberto take a decision that concerns only him. He tells Mary that he will go from there permanently. Puts them in a suitcase the few things that have (however well-ordered), and goes with Flaik, which would leave in a hostel for dogs. But it is a wicked place, there are big dogs in Flaik afraid to leave and the money would be enough to rent a month or two. Umberto goes into a public garden. A girl playing with Flaik. Umberto search to ensure that the child is disease and keep the dog, but the girl's relatives do not want it. 
Near the garden there is the railway. Umberto's intention was to throw herself under a train to end it all. At this point, we have to take the dog in her arms and wait to pass the final train for both. But Flaik understand and escape when the train is coming. Umberto's go back. 
Flaik does not trust the owner, is behind a pine tree. Umberto understands that there must be patience and try a large pine cone, which he throws like a ball. Finally Flaik gets involved and it approximates to Umberto. The film ends as Umberto and Flaik are playing together.
