Italian racing cyclist star Gino Bartali is about to retire when his brother Giulio is killed in a racing accident. Brother Leone, for whom he ran errands for the resistance during the war, persuades him not to throw in the towel. In 1948, after a failed assassination attempt on the life of Italian Communist Party leader Palmiro Togliatti, the Prime Minister of the time, De Gasperi, asks Gino Bartali to help restore authority in the country by winning the Tour de France. After a poor start, Bartali carries the day.
