La Pivellina
Abandonnée dans un parc, la petite Asia âgée de deux ans est recueillie par Patti, une artiste de cirque qui vit avec son mari Walter dans une aire de camping à San Basilio, dans la banlieue de Rome. Avec l’aide de Tairo, un adolescent qui vit avec sa grand-mère dans un camping-car voisin, Patti se met à chercher la mère d’Asia, et garde l’enfant chez elle en attendant.
