Combattiva e coraggiosa, una popolana conduce le donne del quartiere romano in cui abita a ribellarsi contro le ingiustizie sociali: diventa così famosa che potrebbe intraprendere la carriera politica, ma vi rinuncia per accudire la numerosa famiglia.

Angelina (1947)
90 min
A rowdy woman is so forceful that she outdoes her husband in a loud cry against speculators who refuse poor people entrance to a block of new apartments, built after WW2. Without noticing it, she starts a people's movement, and leads a march to the capital. She returns to her village a winner, an honourable MP. Yet, she is still the same simple, fiery woman, able to get in a hair-pulling brawl with the local barmaid for the affection of her man.
