The story takes place in post-World War II Italy, where the wounds inflicted by the war on the nation and its people are immeasurable. The pain and destruction caused in a short period of time will take much longer to heal. In such a tumultuous era, a group of innocent children appears, among them the little shoeshine boys, Pasquale (Franco Interlenghi) and Giuseppe (Rinaldo Smordoni). Giuseppe's brother is a troublemaker, and under his coercion and temptation, Giuseppe and Pasquale, with their hard-earned money, get involved in a scam gang. The police arrest Giuseppe and Pasquale, and driven by a scheme of deception, Pasquale betrays the main culprit and his gang, leading to the arrest of Giuseppe's brother. Although justice is served, the childhoods of the two children are forever shadowed.
