  • "Clara lleva una vida miserable en su humilde apartamento de Milán, donde convive con tres niños y sus cuñadas. Le es diagnosticada una tuberculosis que le hará ir a un sanatorio ubicado en los Alpes italianos, donde conocerá a un mecánico afectado de la misma enfermedad. Vivirán un apasionado romance, pero el problema surgirá cuando, una vez curada, deba volver de nuevo a su mísera existencia."
  • "Clara is a factory worker whose life has become exceedingly grim. She, her two children, and her husband are living with his family, while he is laid up (and off from his job) with a broken leg. Her brother-in-law is a lay-about; her peevish mother-in-law worships her sons and exploits Clara, the only working adult in the household. One day she passes out on the factory floor, and the National Health Service diagnosis of tuberculosis is justification for sending her to a sanatorium in the mountains. There she meets a young man, and falls desperately in love. If, as Appollinaire said, "Sickness is the vacation of the poor," what will happen when Clara is well?"
  • "Fiction. Drame. Une ouvrière de Milan, Clara, mère de trois enfants, mène une existence misérable auprès d'un mari infirme et sans travail. Atteinte de tuberculose, elle fait un séjour en montagne dans un sanatorium qui lui permet de s'évader de son quotidien. Elle ébauche une idylle avec un autre patient. Mais cette trêve inespérée sera de courte durée. Avec Florinda Bolkan, Renato Salvatori, Daniel Quenaud, Josè Maria Prada, Teresa Gimpera."
