"Cabiria is a wide-eyed waif, a streetwalker living in a poor section of Rome where she owns her little house, has a bank account, and dreams of a miracle. We follow her nights (and days): a boyfriend steals 40,000 lire from her and nearly drowns her, a movie star on the Via Veneto takes her home with him, at a local shrine she seeks the Madonna`s intercession, then she meets an accountant who`s seen her, hypnotized on a vaudeville stage, acting out her heart`s longings. He courts her. Is it fate that led to their meeting? Is this finally a man who appreciates her for who she is?" Notes: On reserve Spring 2002 for L53 360 Film Score. Director: Federico Fellini.
