As the film opens, Giuliana (Vitti) has been released from the hospital after having attempted suicide. She lives with her husband Ugo (Carlo Chionetti), director of a nationalized plant which is going through a strike, along with their young son. Giuliana feels estranged from her family and disconnected from the world. Ugo's friend Zeller (Richard Harris) comes to Ravenna to make a business deal and is drawn to her. Zeller may understand her troubles more than Ugo does, but this is not enough to sway Giuliana from her worries.
