Jul 24, 2019 · The thief’s neighbours give him an alibi and the police refuse to act on only Antonio’s word.

Bicycle Thieves (Italian: Ladri di biciclette), also known as The Bicycle Thief, [5] is a 1948 Italian neorealist drama film directed by Vittorio De Sica. [6] It follows the story of a poor father searching in post- World War II Rome for his stolen bicycle , without which he will lose the job which was to be the salvation of his young family.
An in fact pointless wandering through the streets of post-WWII Rome as the hero searches for his stolen bike among thieves, whores, rotten policemen and all kinds of scumbags. An opportunity, more or less, for the writer to let off some steam on all the hypocrisy the fall of fascism left behind.
