Set in postwar Rome, the film follows two young friends, Giuseppe and Pasquale, whose simple dream of buying a horse leads them into a devastating confrontation with poverty, injustice, and institutional cruelty. Told with a child’s-eye perspective and grounded in everyday reality, Shoeshine transforms small gestures into profound tragedy, capturing the moral weight of survival in a shattered society. Restored in 4K by The Film Foundation and Cineteca di Bologna, this edition preserves the film’s raw emotional power while offering essential contextual supplements that explore its historical impact and enduring legacy.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003edirected by: vittorio de sica\u003cbr\u003estarring: rinaldo smordoni, franco interlenghi\u003cbr\u003e1946 \/ 92 min\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eLanguage: Italian\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Criterion","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":46123326668870,"sku":null,"price":52.99,"currency_code":"CAD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0747\/8096\/6982\/files\/file_42f0abb6-90a2-4849-a19e-be3b8ece5410.jpg?v=1791343077","url":"https:\/\/peakbooks.co\/products\/shoeshine-4k-ultra-hd-blu-ray","provider":"Peak Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
