Synopsis
Francesco, démobilisé, retrouve sa région natale, la Ciociaria, au lendemain de la guerre. Sa famille est, par contre, dans un total dénuement, ayant été dépouillée de son troupeau de moutons par le voisin Bonfiglio. Celui-ci, devenu riche durant le conflit, veut, à présent, épouser Lucia, pourtant amoureuse de Francesco. Avec le soutien de Maria Grazia, sa propre sœur, Francesco reprend son bien par la force. Afin de se venger, Bonfiglio viole Maria Grazia et porte plainte contre lui à l'aide de faux-témoignages. Francesco est alors condamné à quatre ans de prison. Il parvient à s'évader, enlève Lucia et, grâce aux bergers jusqu'ici terrorisés, pourchasse Bonfiglio dans la montagne. Acculé, ce dernier se tue en tombant dans un précipice. Les cloches de Pâques sonnent, au même moment, à toute volée. De son côté, Francesco se livre à la police afin que justice soit rendue.Actors

The film begins at the start of the rice-planting season in northern Italy. In an effort to escape the law, two small-time thieves, Francesca (Doris Dowling) and Walter (Vittorio Gassman), hide amongst the crowds of female workers heading to the rice fields of the Po Valley. While attempting to board the train for the fields, the pair runs into Silvana (Silvana Mangano), a peasant rice worker. Francesca boards the train with Silvana, who introduces her to the planter's way of life. Francesca does not have a work permit, and struggles with the other "illegals" to find a place on the rice fields. After initial resistance from documented workers and bosses, the scabs are allowed a place in the fields. At the fields, Silvana and Francesca meet a soon-to-be-discharged soldier, Marco (Raf Vallone), who unsuccessfully tries to attract Silvana's interest.

The film is the story of a wandering tramp who has an affair with the wife of a restaurant owner. The two then conspire to murder her husband and attempt to live happily ever after. The catch is built into the title of the book, however, and the long arm of the law rings again to disrupt the couple’s already guilt-wracked life, ironically convicting the tramp for an accidental death despite his being absolved of guilt in the actual murder.

Dans un petit village du Latium du Sud, une paysanne et un paysan jeunes et pauvres, Angela et Pasquale, reportent indéfiniment leurs noces car ils n'ont pas les moyens pour la cérémonie de mariage. Les deux familles, très amies entre elles, après avoir discuté d'un éventuel mariage et fait les comptes, poussent Pasquale à enlever Angela de manière que la jeune fille perde sa virginité et qu'à ce point ce soit le classique « mariage de réparation », évitant ainsi une fastueuse cérémonie nuptiale. Pendant la « fuite » des deux amoureux les choses se compliquent néanmoins : les deux familles qui devaient faire semblant de se disputer se fâchent vraiment et Angela n'a pas l'intention de se donner à Pasquale. À la fin les choses s'arrangent quand même et le plan initial est exécuté, et les deux jeunes amoureux se marient.
