In 1975, after noted Italian filmmaker and activist Pier Paolo Pasolini is murdered, the public is enraged and teenager Giuseppe Pelosi (Carlo DeFilippi) is convicted of the crime. It certainly seems Pelosi is connected; prior to Pasolini's death, the openly gay director solicited Pelosi for a sexual encounter in a poor neighborhood, and the deal went sour. But forensics experts uncover evidence that leads to theories of conspiracy, corruption and injustice. Yet, the truth remains out of reach.

Audience Member This is an abrasive & engaging crime drama that narrates the events that lead to the murder of director Pier Paolo Pasolini. It should be seen by those interested in the darker corners of film history Rated 3.5 out of 5 stars 01/23/23 Full Review Audience Member Didascalico, un po' di maniera ma necessario. Un tema che in ogni caso meritava più approfondimenti. Rated 2.5 out of 5 stars 01/20/23 Full Review Audience Member che qualcuno ci liberi da questi film effetto fiction. due stelline per le incursioni dei filmati d'epoca chiaramente commuoventi e per l'assenza di pretenziosità per il resto proprio niente rimane, al di là della domanda: Giordana, perchè? Rated 2 out of 5 stars 02/06/23 Full Review Read all reviews
