Bicycle Thieves

Also know as The Bicycle Thief, this timeless classic takes place in post-war Rome. A destitute man searches, with his son, for his stolen bicycle, without which he cannot work and cannot support his family. Bicycle Thieves is a masterpiece of Italian neorealism. The movie is filmed on location (no studio sets were used), and the cast was made up entirely of untrained actors. The result is an honest depiction of life in Rome after the end of the second world war, the hardships endured by the working class, and the daily fight to survive.
