Umberto Domenico Ferrari (Carlo Battisti) is a retiree with debts, living on a tiny pension, who is quickly running out of options. He has a room, but his uncaring landlady who would rather evict him so as to have more room to impress her gentleman callers. He's avoided by peers with more control over their finances, who don't want needy friends. A short hospital stay is like a vacation, but he's not a good enough liar to stretch it out, as do many of the other ward residents. Umberto strikes up a pleasant relationship with the housemaid Maria (Maria Pia Casilio), an unschooled girl with an unwanted pregnancy. Umberto faces an uncertain and lonely future on the street. His only true companion is his small dog Flike, that he really can't afford to feed.
