Italy V. de Sica
An oppressed, lower class, housewife/factory worker from Calabria living in Milan supports her awful family, contracts TB, is sent by the State doctor to a health resort in the mountains where she receives relief from her disease and nightmarish in-laws until...she gets better and has to return.
Very depressing film which stands as a sharp indictment of the industrial economy, the destruction of traditional communities and the plight of people trapped in the modern urban jungle.
