A small idyllic town in northern Italy. Beautiful landscape, beautiful village, beautiful people... and a murder that unfolds the secrets that everyone has in everydaylife... This is one of the most impressive movies I have seen recently. Toni Servillo's acting is especially impressive, he is dancing on the tiny border of overacting without falling into the abyss... Very calm and clear directing by Molaoli. Though he had a respectable career as assistant director to Nanni Moretti and Carlo Mazzacurati; this is a very impressive work for a first movie as a director.





It is eight o’clock in the morning when Marta, biting a doughnut, is returning home after having slept at her aunt’s house. A truck stops: Mario, a deranged local young man, convinces her to follow him to his farm. The alarm goes off immediately, Marta is only six years old. Inspector Sanzio, an experienced policeman, who recently moved to that remote area comes to the town. The younger collegue Siboldi, born in those valleys, becomes his guide also to get to know the family ties and relationships of that small community. The two of them, accompanied by Alfredo, Sanzio’s loyal collegue since his time in homicide, will have to stay in town because another crime is about to be committed; a crime probably connected to one of the families in the village, born from a sentimental or emotional tie: everyone that Sanzio meets and interrogates could be potential killer. The inspector enters into the story with unusual participation: even his own family is crossed by a sharp pain that runs parallel to the investigation.
