Placido (1961) unfolds in a quaint Spanish village where a group of elderly women orchestrate a unique Christmas Eve tradition: a "Sit a poor man at your table" dinner. Each affluent household in the town is tasked with hosting a homeless individual for the evening. The festivities also encompass a lively parade, during which we encounter Placido, a modest man who operates a three-wheeled vehicle. Placido's family is compelled to reside in a public restroom due to their financial struggles, and he faces the urgent need to settle the second installment of his vehicle's payment before midnight to avoid losing it.
