Irene, mariée à un riche industriel mène une vie mondaine dans la Rome d’après-guerre. Superficielle et égocentrique, elle ne porte que peu d’attention à son fils Michele. Un jour, lors d’un diner mondain, pour exprimer son désespoir, Michele se jette dans les escaliers. En dépit de la dévotion soudaine d’Irene, l’enfant meurt quelques jours plus tard, laissant la mère indigne dans un profond état dépressif. Mais au contact d’Andrea Cassati, un ami communiste qui lui fait découvrir les bas-fonds romains, Irene prend conscience de la vanité de son ancienne existence et renaît à la vie. Elle décide dès lors de se consacrer à soulager la misère, ce que ne peut concevoir son entourage, au point de vouloir la faire interner.
