International superstar Franco Nero (DJANGO, DIE HARD 2) stars as Giacomo Solaris, a director whose latest film depicts a prominent Sicilian judge as being on the Mafia's payroll. But when the actual judge is found murdered, Solaris begins his own investigation. Has the Mob found a way to corrupt the nation's top prosecutors? Should Solaris' movie bear some responsibility for the killing? Or will a string of brutal assassinations lead to the most shocking conspiracy of all? 

Francoise Fabian (BELLE DE JOUR, MADAME CLAUDE) co-stars in this provocative thriller from controversial writer/director Damiano Damiani (CONFESSIONS OF A POLICE CAPTAIN, A BULLET FOR THE GENERAL) that features a searing score by Riz Ortolani (MONDO CANE, KILL BILL) and stands as a startling reflection of Italy's infamous decade of political violence.
