Plot

Under provincial Italian law at the time, once a roof is built, nobody can tear the house down, and a young couple races to build one.

Sinekatalog’s take

Vittorio De Sica's neorealist film, Il tetto, is humane and gentle, a lesser-known work in his postwar style.Sinekatalog’s own editorial review – not a user or critic quote.
