In the summer of 1959, as a magazine correspondent, writer and filmmaker Pier Paolo Pasolini (1922-75) traveled along the Italian coast. In 1963, he documented the sexual behavior of the Italians. In the winter of 1970-71, he witnessed the hardships of the most impoverished Italian population suffering from the boot of state power. After these three trips, he came to the conclusion that Italian society had changed drastically for the worse over the years.
It was the night between December 15 and 16, 1969, when railwayman, anarchist and partisan Giuseppe Pinelli, known as “Pino,” died at the age of 41 after falling from a window of the Milan police headquarters, where he was being held for investigation after a bomb exploded at the Banca Nazionale dell’Agricoltura in Milan: now the documentary goes in search of the man, the husband and the father, with his ideas, his passions, his affections--starting from that fateful 1969 and arriving at 2009, when President Giorgio Napolitano called him “the 18th victim of the Piazza Fontana massacre.”
