| Summary |
A prostitute's attempt to escape the clutches of her brutal pimp end in tragedy for her teenage son. Far from telling a sad and sentimental tale about a whore with a heart of gold, Pasolini frames and distances his story. He is ever alert to the incongruous features of a world where petit bourgeois piety rubs up against the amoral innocent violence of the underclass |
