A Man On His Knees - 1979 - 6/10
AKA - Un Uomo in Ginocchio

Word on the street is that a hitman has been hired to whack Nino.
Why? He is just a simple street vendor. Small stall where he sells drinks, snacks and papers.
Bad luck. Nino is in the wrong place, wrong time, and everyone assumes he is involved.
The police, battling gangs, assassins, shakedown artists.
No matter how hard he tries, luck lets him down, over and over.
Set in Palermo, and I imagine (having been there, and having been robbed there) things are still the same.
This is a drama, not Euro Crime, not Thriller.
