In 1972 Milan, amidst the backdrop of general elections, a horrific crime rocks the city as a young girl from an affluent family is brutally raped and murdered. As tension builds among the citizens and political candidates jostle for power, the editor-in-chief of a conservative newspaper, Bizanti, seizes this opportunity to manipulate the situation in favor of his right-wing bosses. Rather than pursuing justice impartially, he seeks to thwart the official police investigation, using journalism as a tool to sway public opinion and secure electoral victories for those aligned with his beliefs. This gripping tale delves into the darker side of human nature, exploring themes of manipulation, power dynamics, and the consequences of moral compromises made in the pursuit of political gain.
