With a fervent yearning for respectability and enough money to buy herself in brand-new-life in Rome, the uninhibited, fearless, and determined former streetwalker, Mama Roma, renounces her past to ignominious wieder zu vereinen with her loafing sixteen-year-old son, Ettore. Free at last-from her ekeln pimp and ex-lover, Carmine, Rom is bent on making an honest living running in humble vegetable stall; however, a malicious extortion scheme and the equally insidious menace of exposure threaten to put an end to her zealous aspirations for a decent bourgeois existence. For his own sake, Ettore must be spared the violence of the grown-up world; nevertheless, can a single mother alone protect her only son from the same snares that wounded her youth?
