"INVESTIGATION ON A CITIZEN

ABOVE ANY SUSPICION"

Many shots were filmed in
Piazzale del Caravaggio

administrative complex of
Beni Stabili, S.p.A.

Any similarity to events
and people is pure coincidence.

JUSTICE

SCIENCE

How are you going to kill me this time?

I'll slit your throat.

Al�?

Al�.
Police Headquarters?

Why did it take so long?
I was asleep?

A crime happened.

Yes, a crime happened.

Via del Tempio 1.

It's not via del Tempo, idiot.

Via del Tempio 1.

Augusta Terzi.

Apartment 1.

Do you understand? Did you write it down?
Repeat for me.

Please.

- Please.
- Please.

One moment!

- Congratulations, Doctor!
- Congratulations.

Congratulations, Doctor.
We achieved.

We wouldn't have done it without
its direction.

We need a man like you.

The political situation is favorable.
I had a lot of ideas.

Don't worry about anything.
See you later.

Piantone, bring me 15 glasses.

- What happened?
- Doctor, there was a homicide.

- Via del Tempo 1.
- Tempio.

Mrs. Augusta Terzi.

- When did we receive the call?
- Ten or twenty minutes ago.

- Ten or twenty?
- They didn't specify.

"BOSS - HOMICIDE DIVISION"

Precision.

We need precision.

We checked the street and the name.
I'm going there.

This irresponsible work gives
suspects a chance to create an alibi.

You'll realize this when I
I'm not here anymore.

"Officer opens fire."
Who is he?

OFFICER OPENS FIRE:
INJURED WORKER

We don't know.

And of course he dropped the gun
and she fired.

This is the most likely version.

Go to via del Tempio.

Congratulations.

Come on, cheers up!
What are these faces?

Don't worry, madam.
Your son will be out in ten years.

I am no longer responsible.
I'm done here.

Mantiglia, Cascio,
Mangiaracine, Del Re, let's go!

All of you, come on!

Finally you are
getting rid of me.

Come on.

Panunzio!

Let's make Panunzio
open a bottle for us.

- Here it is.
- My sincere congratulations, Doctor.

Toruzzo!
You come with me.

- Mangani!
- You're coming with me, understand?

Congratulations.

It won't be easy for me
substitute him.

Don't be silly.
What are you talking about?

- And Panunzio? Where is he?
- Here.

Here he is!

- Panunzio, huh?
- Could we come in?

So, they already ripped out the confession
from Proietti?

He still insists it was suicide.

Drink it. The champagne will
clear your mind.

But there's nothing to clarify!

- I'm inocent.
- We understand.

She killed herself just to
put in confusion.

- Yes!
- Yes.

Or he lost his balance.

She must have been dizzy.
I don't know!

You pushed her.

No, I was sleeping,
like when they found me.

I was asleep.
Plus, I'm a violent guy.

I would have strangled the slut!

Drink, Mr. Innocent.

Drink it.

Everyone is innocent here.

There is only one guilty party...

and it's me.

Quiet, please.

I'm not saying this to call
attention of a superior officer,

who is also a great friend,

but no one deserves this promotion
more than you.

In all these years,
we investigated 102 murder cases,

and only 10 were not resolved.

Am I right,
that in these difficult times,

the Policy Division will be as
efficient in terms of Homicides.

I hope you have as much success there
how much was here.

I toast to your health and yours
incredible career.

Health.

Enough sucking up.

- The party is over. Let's go.
- Via del Tempio 1!

Via del Tempio 1 is the place!

Mangani, Panunzio, let's go!

I'll meet you there.

Do you have a suspect?

- It was the husband.
- Good!

What did you find?

Homicide news clippings.

There is a photo of him. Look.

- Where is she?
- Over there.

Find it out.

The jewelry box is empty.

- And that?
- 300,000 lire in cash.

She was a libertine,
like D'Annunzio.

We didn't find any clothes
from below in the house.

- Not even panties.
- How crazy.

They were in bed, making love.

Any signs of orgasm?

No, in a prior analysis.

Cover.

Grab that bottle and that glass.

Some of the tenants
Did you see or hear something?

We're taking your names.

Are you feeling well?

- Who is the neighbor?
- A well-known surgeon.

An individual above suspicion.

Whose name is the apartment in?

From the victim.

Who inherits everything?
The husband?

They have been separated for 3 years.

Find it. Interrogate him.

Look this.

The victim posing for photos
of false crimes.

There's a collection of them here.

It seems to me like the work of an amateur,

a rather childish one, I would say.

What do you think?

Lie down on the bed and turn around.

I'll show you how we found that one
prostitute on Viale Coccia di Morto.

- Where?
- That's good.

- Now come with me.
- To where?

A German flight attendant had sex with a
Turkish customer on an intercontinental flight.

We found her strangled in the
bathroom at Fiumicino Airport.

Stay still!

- Which one do you want now?
- Let's play the young singer.

Yes. Parioli, 1967.

A young rock singer
she had her throat cut.

Her body was covered in discs
of religious music.

An erotic and mystical crime.

The killer,
a seminarian,

was found minutes later,

listening carefully to the voice of
his victim on a jukebox.

He wasn't a seminarian, stupid.
He was an organist.

Don't move.

- Let's play the young revolutionary.
- Yes.

Student. Trent.

She was suffocated by a
professor of sociology

with 10,000 in lira notes.

She was raped after she died.

Stay in this position.

She opens her legs. Just like that.

Don't move.

Ready.

Don't get excited when
do you find it like this?

Sometimes.
Once, a detail excited me.

A tack.

- Which?
- No, I'm ashamed to say.

Excuse me.

- Doctor.
- What is it?

I think he's a complete idiot.

- Who?
- The killer.

Why does he think that?

Not only is it stupid, it's also
superficial and careless.

Fake a robbery by taking the jewelry,
but leave 300,000 lire in the dresser.

Then he gets dressed,
take a bath.

Beautify yourself,
used the victim's French soap.

- AND?
- Put on your shoes.

Then he steps in the blood, leaving
footprints all over the place.

useful for our work, but
what a stupid guy.

No?

He's an idiot.

Let's hope it was the husband.
He can pack everything.

- And then?
- Naked.

-Was she raped?
- No, the sex was consensual.

She was later killed.
There was no sign of a break-in in the apartment.

Write this down. Create an atmosphere
sexual, please.

It's morbid. Remember the D'Annunzio case.
There's blood everywhere.

Get out of there, I'll drive.

Did she have a nice body?

Satin leather, like a real one
courtier of the Roman Empire.

And one thing for your readers
left-wing.

No panties were found
in apartment.

- A fetishist?
- No. She didn't even use it.

I already have the headline.

Do me a favor, Patan,
focus on the husband.

Do me a favor.

Commissioner.

You don't know me.

I'm talking to the powerful
Head of Homicide?

No, you don't know me.

You've never seen me before.

I don't date cops.

Who am I?

Could be a thief,
a maniac, uses murder,

one of the 30 killers who still
They walk free around this city.

What is my name?

Go find out.
You are so smart.

He poses for photos and gives interviews.

And by the way,
try to lose weight.

Boss, help!

Someone is breaking into my house.
I can hear your footsteps.

They've been threatening me for months:
letters, anonymous calls.

It's someone who wants to possess me,
rape me.

He's here!
He's got his pants off!

How horrible.

I'm so alone, naked.

I will be raped and killed.

It's my destiny. Help!

Always in black,
always in mourning.

Listen, don't fool yourself.

Physically, I don't care.

He's an ordinary Italian.
It's very hairy.

It's probably too much.

And I'm sure it smells like
shoe polish, right?

Every police officer smells it. Admit it.

A police officer is full of secrets,
like a priest.

It's his mind that excites me.

I am an admirer of the police.

I am a confident aspirant.

What I wouldn't give to be
interrogated by you.

Whoever does this is the whore
your sister's!

- Who is it?
- Police.

Who else?
A thief or a policeman.

Whose is this?

A man.

Who are you?
What you want?

Why are you calling me?

Let's make something clear.

- I don't pay for women.
- Good.

You should have called
help, not for Homicide.

Who do you think I am?

What's your game?

I'm just having fun.

How did you find them all
these millionaires?

Did you call them too?

You are good.

Wow, what a cop.

But there is an error here.

In 1966, I was alone,

like a dog.

Stand up!

Toruzzo.

How are you?

- How are you?
- Good.

Gentlemen, I hope you appreciate
the agenda of this meeting.

A little "American"!

We don't have enough men
to face what's coming.

- That's right!
- We need much more!

Sit down.

Today, I was named the Head of
Political Division.

You all know that until yesterday
I was arresting murderers,

and, with a certain success.

There is a reason for them
choose a man like me,

at a time like this,

to head the Political Division.

The decision was taken by the
following reason:

The difference between criminals
common and political criminals

is decreasing every day.

It practically disappeared.

Memorize this rule:

Inside every criminal,
a subversive can hide,

and within every subversive,
a criminal can hide.

In this city that was entrusted
in our care,

subversives and criminals
they spun a web.

Our job is to dismantle it.

What is the difference between a group
of criminals who rob a bank

and organized subversion,
institutionalized, legal?

There are none.

They both have the same objective.
They just use different methods.

Your goal is to disrupt the
social order.

6,000 prostitutes catalogued.

A 20% increase in strikes and
public and private occupations.

2,000 known brothels.

30 attempts to depredation of
public heritage in demonstrations.

200 rapes in one year.

50,000 education students
average protesting in the streets.

A 30% increase in bank robberies.

10,000 new registered subversives.

600 registered homosexuals.

More than 70 groups of subversives
operating outside the limits of the law.

50% increase in bankruptcies
fraud and protests of debts.

An indescribable number of magazines
policies encouraging revolutions.

The exercise of freedom

threatens the stability of our
power structure,

our established authority.

The exercise of freedom does the
citizen believes that he can judge

and prevent us from realizing our
sacrosanct duty!

We are the protectors of the law,

and this is immutable,
It is engraved in the stones.

The popular has no maturity.

The city is sick.

Leave the task to others
to heal and educate.

Our duty is to suppress them!

Repression is our vaccine!

Repressing is civilizing!

All right, Chief.

Bravo, Boss!

No applause, please.
It was nothing.

I'm modest, please.

Let's get back to work.

Communists are in this session.

There the guerrillas,
Trotskyists, Maoists and anarchists.

- What about political parties?
- Over there.

Here we have the Catholic movements.

Back there, the Social Democrats
and following opposition parties to the right.

With progress, obviously,
all this will be destroyed,

and everything will fit in small rooms.

Over here, please.

Canes, come here.

I would like to look at the records of the
my colleagues from Homicide,

jokingly.

In the last two weeks we have been
inserting the file information.

This is progress.

- Let's do a test.
- Let's go.

Let's imagine that the Terzi case
have a political motivation.

- What is the address, exactly?
- Via del Tempio, 1.

- What is the region?
- Center.

Let's ask the computer

if in via del Tempio there is any
politically dangerous individual.

- How it works?
- Like this.

What is this?
America has arrived here!

It's revolutionary!

One of our old records
lives in via del Tempio, 1.

An individual politically and
socially dangerous.

-Antonio Pace.
- Yes.

Born in Ravenna, May 24, 1946.

chemistry student,
member of the student movement.

Subversive, passionate,
fanatic, and dangerous.

- Is his phone tapped?
- Of course, Doctor.

Since May 1968.

The expression of a criminal.

I'll rip it off his face.

Doctor.

Please come in.

Until next time.

- Eminence.
- No, son, not better.

- Would you like a cigar?
- Thanks.

Take it.

Settle in.

So, are you satisfied?

Well, you know, satisfied...

In 1917, the responsibility for the defeat
de Caporetto fell on General Cadorna.

This year the center left

could become another Caporetto
for governments.

The country is in tension.

I would feel better if I had
a bigger team to command.

I need 100 more men and more
resources to pay my informants.

I'll take this to the ministry.

- I would like...
- Continues.

- What I would really like...
- Tell me.

- Good.
- Tell me.

Rent one or...

three apartments in a quiet neighborhood,
like Prati, for my informants

in order to establish a relationship
with them it would be more...

- More?
- Confidential.

All good.

But officially,
I don't know anything about it.

My office has prepared a list
more than 630 numbers to tap.

I don't know if... it would be necessary
any authorization for this.

- I don't know.
- You decide.

- Anything else?
- Oh yeah.

That woman who was murdered
three days ago...

- Who? Mrs. Terzi?
- Exactly. Augusta Terzi.

Beautiful woman.

I saw the pictures.

I knew her.

Yes.

I had an affair with her.

How was?

Good? How was?

Oh, you know.

I wanted to ask if you
would find, let's say, necessary

inform this situation to
researchers?

I really don't know.

What do you think?

Goodbye.

- Goodbye.
- Goodbye.

You know, I don't know.

For me, it was the husband.

Send Panunzio in.

Good morning Doctor.

I brought as a gift a portrait of
glorious Homicide squad.

Sit down.

Yes I know.

My brother-in-law is a communist
and secretary of a union.

But what can I do?

You don't put your feet in my house.

Besides, I never saw him again.

Okay, honestly, I see it,

but once a year, at Christmas.

Doctor, I only have two years left.

Don't transfer me.

I have two children who study.

I need to control them,
especially your points of view.

How is the investigation going?
of the Terzi case?

We have a good lead.

On the victim's fingernails, the Scientific
found a blue silk thread

that appears to have been ripped out
of a tie.

- Wasn't the killer naked?
- Yes.

So you believe you were naked,
and a tie.

It's true.
Nobody had thought of that.

Panunzio.

Is the husband being interrogated?

Yes, doctor.

We have been questioning since
last night.

- Fingerprints?
- None relevant.

Just yours, doctor.

My?

My!

Yes, on a doorknob.

And in a cup of coffee.
You must have been sleepy.

This one was in the shower,

but we all mess around there,
to Mangani, remember?

And also in the kitchen.

Here it is.
In the kitchen too.

But, we've all been there.

You must have been distracted and touched
something, without remembering the precautions.

And on the phone too.
Where is it?

Here, on the phone.

Without a doubt, you did
a call that night.

I remember it perfectly.

And here in a glass.
Here. A glass of drink.

You didn't feel well that night.
Remember?

She had a glass of Fernet.
I served it myself, remember?

I wrote it in my notes.

Are you feeling unwell, doctor?

So sir...
Or should I say madam?

Tell us about when
became a homosexual!

Was it before or after you
and Augusta Terzi separate?

Why did your wife kick you out?

Because he was playing
your money out the window.

It wasn't quite like that.
You can't simplify it that much!

I loved her!

Goodnight. It arrived on time.

He's finished.

Two or three questions my way
and he confesses, I'm sure.

Are you crying?

You clarified your ideas,
artist, hippie, queen of transvestites?

- Are you going to talk?
- It should. We know everything.

Of course. It's obvious.

You are a transvestite. She was beautiful,
and you killed her.

- That was what happened.
- That's not true!

- Speak. Be a good boy.
- I want my lawyer!

- We're not in America.
- I want my lawyer!

As fast as laws change,
I will send it to you.

You are an artist, a sensitive guy.

- Try to help us.
- Clear.

Now he's going to tell us the whole story.
Let's start from the beginning.

On the Sunday that his wife,
Augusta Terzi, was killed,

what time did you arrive
Coming from Fregene?

- I already told you.
- Tell us again.

- At 4:00.
- And then?

I took my car and went to Rome.

There was a traffic jam,
hundreds of people, thousands.

So strange.

I know it sounds weird, but...

- He really is a fagot.
- Traffic jam is your excuse.

How convenient!

I already told you everything I knew about her,
about me, about all of you!

Not everything.

Or at least,
not about your agreement.

You used your wife to
boost your career!

If your companion hadn't told you,
you would never have confessed!

Do you want to see that I can wake him up?

Interrogate me.
Let's do something.

Stop sleeping.

Leave me alone.

I like it when you interrogate me.

You are so suspicious.
Reminds me of my father.

Come on, question me.

Interrogate me!

Okay, first get out of bed.

Get out of the bed!

Now get on your knees.
Straighten up!

Firm!

I understood.
Silence is intimidating.

Straighten up!

Now try to imagine that many
Terrible hours will come.

Cruel questions, tricks,
blackmail, everything!

Try to remember everything you've ever forgotten.

Try to recall the memories
more embarrassing.

And remember,
I can find out everything about you

because the government gave me the means to
expose an individual.

- Straighten up!
- Bastard.

I want you to think that
I know everything about you.

This is how I will activate the
blame it on you.

Enough is enough.

Interrogate me!
Ask me questions!

- Do you want me to question you?
- Yes.

So talk, talk!

Tell me the most shameful things.
Speak.

Only if you confess all your
weakness and shame

You will obtain my forgiveness and protection.

I understand.
You treat them like children.

Everyone becomes children again,

especially in the presence of
established authorities.

In my presence,
because I represent power.

Straighten up!

The law.

Sit down!

The law.

All laws,
both known and unknown.

The suspect turns back into a child...

and I become the father,

the model of conduct.

My face becomes the face of God,
the face of conscience.

All of this will touch you deeply,
to expose hidden feelings.

Don't be sad. Look.

I'm explaining this theoretically
why...

Well, why do you think?

These are the foundations upon which
established authorities were constructed.

University professors...

political party leaders,
auditors, managers.

Here.

Now I'll show you how we found
that prostitute in Mandrione.

In the end, we police officers are not
so different from criminals.

We speak the same way,
we have the same habits.

Sometimes even the same gestures.

You look like a boy,

more than any other man
that I've ever met.

You shouldn't say that,

that I am a child.

You shouldn't say it, understand?

The others are children, understand?

- Are you going to give up on the traffic jam story?
- It's the truth!

No, wait.

We'll leave you alone
to think better.

Think carefully about what you should
say yes?

We are leaving.

- Mangani, you scream too much.
- Thanks.

I scream too much.
I learned everything from you.

That guy was getting in line.
Why won't he do his job?

- You're right, doctor.
- He's hindering the investigation.

Damn.

Grab a coffee.

If I'm not mistaken,
Did you decorate the Moroni house?

Yes.

I found out.
You got smart solutions.

Art Nouveau, right?

Mr. Terzi, when was the last time
What did poor Augusta see?

Three days before the murder.

She was blackmailing me.

I received anonymous calls,
a man's voice.

- It was him.
- Who?

The man who was with my wife.
They were having an affair.

He was the one calling me.

He had a certain tone of voice,
from someone who is used to commanding.

Why would they blackmail you?

They liked to see me suffer,
humiliate me.

What was this blackmail like?

One day the man called me and said

that would register me as a transvestite.

I think it must be someone important.

A military man, perhaps.

Or someone from audit.

Augusta liked powerful men.

His name?
Give me the name.

I don't know.
If I knew, I wouldn't be here.

I think he's a killer.

It's just a feeling.

Did you forget what his name was?

I never knew.

Don't worry, everything will be fine.

Thanks.

So?

- I think he's innocent.
- Innocent!

I think he is innocent.

At 4pm on Sunday, August 24th,

I killed Mrs. Augusta Terzi...

with calculated coldness.

There is an extenuating circumstance.

The victim systematically harassed me.

I left evidence everywhere,

not to facilitate the investigation,

but to prove it...

to test...

not to facilitate the investigation,

but to prove it...

to test...

that I am above suspicion.

However...

However...

However,

if you send an innocent man
to jail instead,

So the fact...

that you are above suspicion
will not be proven.

MAIL

1.2 kilograms.

900 lire.

This package is going
really to the police station?

Don't know how to read?

- I would like to speak to Patan�, news.
- One moment.

News.

- Hello? Patan�?
- Who speaks?

I can't say my name.
Your line is tapped.

- What kind of joke is this?
- Al�?

Homicide received a package
with the jewelry of the victim Augusta Terzi,

the killer's shoe and the used blade.

This frees the husband from suspicion.

It's useless to disguise your voice.
I recognize you.

VIVA MAO

In 1948, we removed 2000 occurrences
of graffiti extolling Stalin,

50 for Lenin, 1000 for Togliatti.

Thirty for Marechal Tito.

300 for Mussolini.

411 for the Community Front.

But in 1956, Stalin fell to 100.

A huge drop.

- And Tolyatti?
- Stable.

In 1958, we had 100 "Long live Khrushchev,"

50 to Mao Tse,

and 500 "Down with Stalin" also appeared.

I must point out that we received orders
of not removing them, obviously.

Last year, "Viva Mao" rose to 3000.

Ho Chi Minh rose to 10000,
Che Guevara, 1000,

Marcuse, 11, both for and against.

And something new.
We found some "Viva Sade!"

The Marquis.

This year we expect 10000 for Mao,

500 for Trotsky, 10 for Amendola

and between 500 and 600 for Stalin.

What are those two doing?

Go check.

Make sure you have the documents
and where they go.

Young, young!

Painting advertisements on the walls!

Young students and workers
wandering around in the night,

announcing his revolution by telephone,
in schools, at work!

Using tons of paint
red to insult us!

I know what needs to be done!

I will use more than mops to combat
these subversive, undisciplined!

Pace went to the Homicide Division.

- Who is he talking to?
- Mangani.

ASSASSIN

We must send
our young officers to schools.

They must infiltrate universities and factories,
grow your beard and hair,

wear sweaty clothes.

We must know everything,
control everything!

We will use our own children
if necessary.

Hello, Doctor.

Thanks.

Hello Doctor.

- Antonio Pace's recordings.
- Immediately.

- The Terzi case.
- What happened?

Important new evidence.
I will keep you informed.

- Hello, Doctor.
- Hello.

Doctor, I need your signature.

Thanks.

- Antonio, where have you been all day?
- At the police station.

The Political Division is
harassing you again?

- No. I was in Homicide.
- For what reason?

Because of that woman who was killed
in my building.

- Are they accusing you?
- No.

They wanted to know if the tenants
saw something.

- What did you tell them?
- Nothing, of course.

- Not even that he slept with her?
- Bitch.

Shut up.
My phone is tapped.

In fact, since I'm here, I want to
talk to the police officer who is in charge.

Mate, you have degrading work

to watch above the law
the birth of the Italian revolution,

but you are also being exploited.

Join us,
or at least ask for a raise.

Disconnect.

- Wait a moment, Doctor.
- What?

His ideas are really abominable
except for the last one.

I've been working here for 30 years
and I still earn 140,000 liras a month

- So?
- If I didn't have culture I would fall...

- What?
- I would sell books on the street.

- And what do I have to do with this?
- Anything.

- I'm going to report him.
- Doctor.

- Just a minute.
- News.

- Hello? Patan�?
- Who speaks?

I can't say my name.
Your phone is tapped.

- What kind of joke is this?
- Al�?

Homicide received a package
containing Augusta Terzi's jewels...

Who did he remind you of?

...the killer's shoe and the used blade.

- One of them is Patan.
- Yes, but what about the other one?

Did you receive this order?

I received it, but it was an hour later
that the article was published.

Then it cannot be the husband, because
we have him here.

He could have an accomplice.

I believe that Terzi's husband
He is innocent and must be released.

Detective, this is my case.
The husband remains in prison.

Right.

- Right, Biglia?
- We're going to keep him in jail.

When will you understand?

The man is innocent.

It's better to hold it here,
at least until everyone forgets the case.

You are a bureaucrat.

You are afraid of public opinion.

Don't be sad.

Don't worry.

He's a reactionary, a Bourbon
leaving the Kingdom of the Two Sicilies.

He bows to the Minister and
public opinion.

He's like an old pair of underwear.
It won't last.

Don't worry.

What do you want?

BIG UTURN IN THE TERZI CASE

Here it is.

What should I say to him?

- Tell who?
- Mangani.

Say what?

He wants to know if I know who warned me
about the delivery of the jewelry.

Why does he ask me?

It was you.

Think about.

How could I have warned you about the jewelry
if the package had not yet arrived at the police station?

It was you!

You can't go out there
saying I called you.

I don't care!

I do you favors,

and you better be careful.

This machine makes wonderful espresso.

I know, but I can't drink espresso.

Get a cappuccino.

You want me to disappear
with this machine?

Mystic�, get back to work!

You too.
Get out of here, please.

Get out of here.

Goodbye.

I need your opinion on something.

What is consuming you?

Follow me.

- If we don't help each other...
- A message.

What will happen now?

In this town,
They're not just killing prostitutes.

They are also killing order and
social stability.

Three revolts in 24 hours.

Homeless people, students, teachers.

The teachers!

Italians! In six months,
81 million hours lost to strikes.

- Do you have a painkiller?
- No.

Doctor, do you believe that
Is Terzi's husband innocent?

Of course.

There is only one way to prove
that Terzi's husband is innocent.

- We need to find the man with the blue tie.
- We need to find him.

The blue tie you wore
on the night of the murder...

- Where did you buy it?
- At Cenci, near the Pantheon.

He sold two of them.

We can discard yours,

and he remembers selling the other one
to a woman.

Augusta Terzi.

Then the victim gave the tie
for the killer.

The victim gave the tie
for her killer.

The way the marriage was,
I doubt she gave it to her husband.

That makes sense.
Release him.

And me?

What can I do for you?

How can I help you?

Maybe you'd like my blue tie?

You can come to my house.
Ask.

My maid is there every morning.

- Do you have a painkiller?
- Can I really go to your house?

You understand,
three revolts in 24 hours.

Students, homeless people, teachers.

Teachers.

- I can go?
- He knows...

- Compared to that, I prefer Homicide.
- Of course.

Thank you, doctor.

So if I need it, I can really
pick up the tie at your house?

Disgusting.

Take off that shirt.

I promise your mother will never find out.

And change that shirt.

He looks like a Swiss waiter.

You wear short socks like a priest
or a seminarian,

or maybe like what it is:
one cop.

There's no lighter clothes,
something happier?

- Something normal, at least?
- No.

People must cross the street
when I see you

because they realize that you are a police officer.

You reek of barracks,
archives, cells.

The priests smell of nonsense, at least.

Authorities should provide
deodorant for employees.

I will kill you
with my own hands.

How brave.

You would coordinate the investigation.

Who would discover the crime?

- Would you do me a favor?
- Yes.

You could go in there
and buy all the blue ties?

The ones in the window.

Why don't you go buy it yourself?

They will think I'm from another store
and that I want to resell.

- Do me this favor.
- It will be very expensive.

- How much?
- 50 or 60,000 lire.

Alright, take as much as you need.

But I'm curious.
Why do they all have to be blue?

I'm a theater entrepreneur.

- Things from the play.
- I understood.

The name of the piece is
"50 Blue Ties by 50 Novelists."

Good.

Do me a favor.
I'll wait for you there.

- Where?
- Under the awning.

Go quickly.

Here it is.

4000 lire is change.

You know what happened?
This was good.

They thought I was a police officer.

They gave me a discount.

One guy even called me Sergeant.

Okay, here it is.

Count. There are 25.

- What do you work with?
- What?

- What do you work with?
- I?

I'm a plumber.

- A plumber.
- I work when I feel like it.

- Who did you vote for?
- Who did I vote for?

Why are you interested?

- Tell us who you voted for!
- Whoever I wanted! Why?

I'll keep this tie.
You keep the other 24.

What?
What does that mean?

- I want an explanation, sir.
- I'll explain now.

Take these 24 ties
to the police station immediately.

Go to the Homicide Division.

I'm not a theater manager.

I'm a killer.

What did you say?

A killer.

A killer.

Do you read the newspapers?

Remember the lady
that she was killed in Via del Tempio?

I killed.

What are you saying?
A respectable man like you?

He's messing with me, right?

No, I'm not kidding you.

You're screwed now.

Why screwed?
I didn't do anything!

Just shut up for a minute!

I will explain how it works.

Anyone who comes in contact
with a signature it gets complicated.

Run to the police station,
Homicide Division.

Give them a detailed description of me.

Enter the time, place,
How was our meeting?

Look at me carefully.
Describe me in detail.

It's not every day that you stay 30 centimeters apart
of a murderer.

Examine everything.

Save how I comb my hair,

if I have a mustache,
what am I wearing, if I'm wearing a tie.

At least let me go home
see my wife and son.

Go to the police station.
Go to the police station!

- At least some time to shave!
- Stop acting like an idiot!

Act like a citizen!

- Calm down, listen.
- Go!

- Look!
- Go to the police station!

Wait, look!

Sir!

- To the police station!
- Come back.

Go ahead, move the signal forward.
You are above the law.

No, what are you asking me to do?

Go, go straight through!
Advance the signal!

- Do you want me to pass red?
- Yes, go!

You can do anything you want.

- Will soon. Do it.
- I'll do it, pay attention.

- That!
- I will do anything!

I am going! I am going!

Look, see?

The traffic officer is coming.

- Show him your imposing badge.
- Of course.

Show what an important man you are.
He will tremble!

Be rude.

License and vehicle documents.

Police.

- Quickly, please.
- Sorry, doctor.

You can commit whatever crime you want.

I'm serious.

Good. You reminded me
of that girl beheaded in Castel Gandolfo.

Rape.

Do you think you could kill me here
and still not get caught?

Theme: How a cop murders
on a crowded beach without getting caught.

The parking attendant saw me,

the ticket agent,

the lifeguards

and the people in the cabin next to us.

I would say that the parking attendant
It is the most dangerous.

Yes, yes.

A parking attendant
denounce such an important man?

Impossible.

You would have to sign the crime
with full name to be caught.

- Otherwise, who would suspect you?
- Augusta, don't provoke me.

It would be very easy for me.

Let's go.

Come up with an interesting crime.

I will cut off your head and hide it.

No, I'm going to throw her into the sea

for fish.

A lifeguard will find your body
in the cabin at the end of the day.

The expert, a Latin guy,
will not examine your body until tomorrow,

when you will already be on an internship
advanced decomposition.

What a...

Idiot!

Augusta!

Augusta, stop the joke.
Skirt.

WOMEN

Augusta, come on!

We need an official mandate
to demolish these brothels.

Augusta!

Use support, sir.

Your colleague stopped by this morning,
young Napolitano.

-What was his name?
- Who? Biglia?

That's right, Biglia.

- What did he want?
- I don't know.

She was looking for a tie,
but I didn't give it to him.

How could I?
I'm using.

So you must have two.

I saw the other one kept
in your shoe yesterday.

He wanted to look at the shoes too.

I soon realized it was a piece of cake.

He asked me several things.

- What did he want to know?
- If you brought women here.

- Anything else?
- If you have a girlfriend.

- Was that all?
- What do you do on Sundays?

- Can go. I have work to do.
- I'm not finished yet, sir.

Finish later.

HOMICIDE DIVISION

Good morning!

- How are you, Homicidal?
- How are things in the Politics Division?

Good morning.

To save your time,
I brought my tie.

What's the problem?

- What did he do?
- Killed.

I would do a demo!

He killed the employee.

Can you come in here for a moment?
A boy...

- What's good going on?
- Sorry.

- Are you going to talk?
- Anything.

He must be a psychopathic liar.

This gentleman wants
ask some questions.

Who is he?

- Yes?
- Excuse me.

I'm sorry, sir.

Perhaps...

What am I saying?
I'm sure I was wrong.

About?

- I confused you with someone.
- With whom?

Earlier, he thought he recognized you.

He says this morning

a stranger gave him
money to buy all these ties.

And then he confessed
to be the murderer of Augusta Terzi.

- AND...
- Let's listen.

- Go ahead, talk.
- Thanks.

Well, that's how it happened.

I found this person

who told me to come straight
to the police station.

- Who was?
- Who would know? Some maniac.

Maybe he owned a theater,
or maybe he worked in cinema.

And I fell for it, of course.

He warned me
that I would be on fire.

- What do you work with?
- I?

Well I...

I'm a plumber.

- A firefighter.
- Plumber.

Plumber?

Fireman.

- Firefighter is an old term.
- Tell them you're a firefighter.

Yes, I'm a firefighter.

- What did you say?
- Like you said, I'm a firefighter.

- There is nothing to fear.
- Do I have your word?

- You can relax now.
- Thanks.

- You are a citizen.
- Thanks.

- We respect our citizens.
- Great. Thank you sir.

Mangani, come with me, please.

This time.

I'll sort it out with you later.

- You faked this meeting...
- No, the firefighter came to us.

Didn't even follow
the standard procedure!

- It was Biglia, not me.
- Mangani, I'm going to ask for your head!

- Take care!
- Go back to your offices!

What are you doing?
Back to work.

- It's my fault.
- And you shut up!

I'm seeing it mixed up.
It can't be him.

He's in blue
and the other man was wearing beige.

- I have an idea.
- Let go of my arm.

I will hold them both,

Terzi's husband
and this idiot with the ties.

- What do you think?
- Do your job.

I'll do what I have to do.

Now, dear firefighter,
will tell me the truth.

You are involved,
and I will fuck you!

I brought the cappuccino,
but it's very sweet.

You should mix
half bitter coffee and half sweet milk.

Mystic, I'll come to you
play back in Praça Navona!

Get lost with this machine from here!

If anyone asks, I'm not.

Excuse me, Commander, are you alone?

Yes.

I wanted to know if you authorized

some investigation about me
as a suspect in the Terzi case?

I will ask for a report
of the officer,

and I can talk about it
at dinner tonight.

It's not enough.

I wish the entire homicide squad
be placed under investigation!

I have a time bomb in my office
that could blow up the entire system,

everyone's public and private lives!

I have everyone's dirt,
and you know!

- Okay, but it will be at your own risk.
- Clear.

Technician!

I need to recover three recordings.
Policy Division.

The commissioner gave me orders
of not releasing anything.

- When did you receive that order?
- I can't say.

Was it written or over the phone?

Please give up.

Why would you mind if I take it?
three tapes for a few hours?

Oh, I care. I would lose my job.

- We all care about careers.
- Exactly, I care.

Be patient.

Do me this favor.

It was a bomb!

- Get out of the way!
- Down there!

- It was on ventilation, Doctor!
- Stop!

Return to your posts! Stop!

- Where did it happen?
- Downstairs.

Please please!
Just cops.

Everyone else stay away.
You too. Get out please!

- Here, Doctor.
- Careful.

- Careful!
- This way.

This is a serious problem.

- Let me pass.
- Let him pass.

- Don't touch anything!
- Don't move!

Don't touch anything.

This time, they fixed
a big mess.

Attention!

They are here.
They are coming.

This is the ultimate confrontation.
It's incredible.

I just received the message:
There were two more attacks at 6:30 pm.

One at the American Express office,
the other in court.

- Let him pass, please.
- Yes, let him go.

This is where the explosion occurred.

In my humble opinion,
we should act decisively.

We know each one of them.

We need to show ourselves resolute.
They went too far!

I'm giving you all carte blanche!

- Was I clear?
- Very.

Good.

Let him pass, please.
Let him pass!

Death to the bosses!

Mao, Mao, Ho Chi Minh!

Mao, Mao, Ho Chi Minh!

Death to the bosses!

- Doctor.
- What do you want?

Get out of here!

Check everyone's ID!

No press statements now.

- How many of them are your informants?
- Five.

Hold them at least until dark.

What do you want?

No, what do you want?
He was staring at me.

I? I'm almost blind.

I'm not looking at you.

Take care of your life!

Hello?

Yes I am alone.
I'm in a hurry. What is it?

Alone.

Alone!

There will be a jealousy crisis
over the phone?

Why don't you just tap my phone?

Distract me.
Hide a camera under my sheets.

You are in command of 500 men.
Get someone to follow me.

So you know
who I see and what I do.

"I think the time has come to
end our case."

Augusta, take this
pathetic farewell letter

and put it right between your legs!

Are you running away?

I'm not going to play the "jealous boyfriend game".

Do whatever you want.

Go fuck whoever you want.
I don't care.

But I want to know everything.
I want to see him.

We need to be accomplices.

You can't do this to me.

I'm a respectable man.

I have a name.
I represent power, Augusta.

You should kiss the ground
Where do I step, you hear, bitch?

Who is this Pace? Bitch!

It's a friend of mine who lives in the building.

Young, handsome and revolutionary.

A revolutionary!

- I'm going to hurt you!
- Get your hands off me, idiot!

You're not at the police station.
It's in my house!

Get out of here!

I'm not like the poor bums
that fall into your hands, do you hear?

You make love like a boy,
because that's what you are!

- Who do you think you are?
- Don't scream.

I bet you still wet the bed!
You are nothing, nothing!

You are incompetent,
sexually incompetent.

- Did you understand?
- Don't hit me!

- You are incompetent.
- Don't hit me!

It's a boy, understand?

You are a child!

Don't get up. Stay seated.

Beautiful sunset.

- We've been up for 16 hours.
- We'll send them back to the barracks soon.

We are exhausted.

- Take it.
- Long live the Cultural Revolution!

Doctor, they are using the same names
thirty years ago.

The revolution is like syphilis.
It's in their blood.

- Goodnight.
- 'night.

'Night, Doctor.
We won't be able to take much longer.

How tough!

Murderers! Fascists!

Fascists! Fascists!

Spontaneous!

Spontaneous!

Even trapped, they fight.

In two hours, they already split
into four groups.

It's like a chain reaction.

The good thing is that they are not united,
If we weren't we'd be screwed.

I want to interrogate Antonio Pace.
He has training.

But first send the guy next door,
the one shouting, with the mustache.

It's what you are!

Servants of power!
Servants of power!

Hands off the ground!

All your weight
needs to be on your knees.

You are not a horse
to get on all fours!

He is a citizen of a democracy,
not a horse.

You are not a horse!

What do you prefer?

Another sip of salt water
or remain on your knees?

I don't know. You decide.

If you want to get up,
I recommend you drink it all.

You better drink it all.

All the water.

Anything.
On your knees again.

You shouldn't have stopped drinking.

I could be out of here in 10 minutes
and take a good drink of pure, fresh water.

Clear, smooth, fresh water.

Student.

I don't want to take him to trial.

We are not the KGB or the SS.

We are the police of a democracy.

We are happy when we manage to free
a citizen with a harsh sentence.

You're just a boy.
I don't want to ruin your future.

Sit up straight!

You can be a Marxist,
an anarchist, a situationist.

Mao, Lin Biao.

You can read the red booklet,
You can do whatever you want.

You are not a horse!

You are a citizen of this democracy,

and I have to respect him.

But, terrorist attacks,

intimidation,

and bombs

They fuck with fucking democracy!

You tell me who attacked the police station
and the American Express office,

and would act like a true democrat,
realize?

It's obvious.

I know it wasn't you.

But I'm sure you know the name
of the guilty gang.

Please give me some water.

We don't want you to sell out your friends.

We want you to act like a
true democrat.

You understand me.
Let us speak like modern, civilized men.

What democracy is this?

Let's admit it.

It is the first step towards socialism.

I, for example, vote for the socialists.

Fear not.

I am your confidant.
Everyone here is talkative.

But nothing will happen.

My mouth is a tomb.

This entire building will be a tomb!

So, are you going to tell me the truth?

Will you tell me?

Will you tell me your name?

It was Pace!

Pace set the bomb
the day he came to the police station!

Did he build the bomb?

Mattone, bring in Antonio Pace.

We're done with this one.

Let's go. Stand up.

He finished. You are free.

If you ever need something,
you can call me.

I didn't want to say.

I didn't want to say.

Canes, Mattone, leave us alone.
Go have a coffee.

Leave me alone with my "companion."

One of your companions
just delivered it.

You can't escape prison with a PhD!

At best, it is judged as
bank robber!

Pace, Antonio.

Born in Ravenna, 1946.

Chemistry student.

Independent anarchist.

Sentenced to three months in 1968
for resisting arrest.

What do you have to say?

Do you know who I am?

I think it was the lover
from my downstairs neighbor.

-The one that she was murdered.
- By whom and when?

I think you killed
on the afternoon of Sunday, August 24th.

What time?

I believe he committed the murder
between 5pm and 7pm.

It was the time when
We meet at the gate.

Since you're so sure it was me,
report me.

- You would like it, right?
- Report me!

Here you are and here you will stay.
A criminal leading the repression.

- It's perfect! It's perfect!
- Report me!

You need to report me!

I made a mistake,
and I want to pay for it.

Stop yelling!

Do your job.

- You need to report me because...
- You report me!

Open it!

Next time we set something up,
I'll call you.

It's in my hands!

Come back here.
He's acting like a boy.

Let's discuss the issue.
Please be sensitive.

- I want to leave. Let me go.
- Hold him.

It's nothing.
Let go. Let go.

It's nothing. Let him go.

The student.

"It's in my hands."

HOMICIDE DIVISION

How are you?

You have been summoned
for the Botta case too?

No, I'm here for the Terzi case.

The beautiful dead woman
with a razor?

Quiet.
I told them both to shut up.

Hello, Doctor.

- How are things?
- Great.

- Pallottella?
- Gift.

It's your turn. In between.

Hang on. I go first.

Pallottella, come on.

Close the door.

Come on, Pallottella.

Go ahead,
you nervous.

Get out of there, you son of a bitch,
you shit.

A little bureaucrat, pretending to be a police officer.

You will never understand
the meaning of my actions in full,

of my sacrifice,

with which I hope to reaffirm,
in all its purity, the concept of authority.

- Idiots!
- What did I do?

I'm turning in Augusta Terzi's killer
to you.

Thanks.

From now on,
I am at the disposal of justice.

When they want to interrogate me,
you will meet me at home.

- That things happen.
- Well, they shouldn't.

Don't worry. Will be again
home before dawn.

We'll see.

- Over here, please.
- Sir.

From now on, you can say no problem
who recognized me.

I didn't recognize anyone.

I didn't recognize anyone!

Help!
I didn't recognize anyone!

No! Help!

What did you do?

What did you do?

What about us?
What about your colleagues?

Do your duty.

"Article 247:

Cases in which house arrest
will be authorized.

When the circumstances of the crime

and the moral danger it represents
the suspect allows it,

in your own home."

HIGH SCHOOL DIPLOMA

The rector of the University of Messina
solemnly confers...

Doctor?

They are in the room.

Come.

Sir.

Excellence.

Excellence.

I'm sorry I bothered you
so many important people.

Eat that salt.

Where have you been, dear colleague,

between 3pm and 5pm on the day
of the murder of Augusta Terzi?

Your Excellency, gentlemen,

I was with her, because I killed her.

Can you prove that you were in the house?

I have bad news.

There is a witness.

Unfortunately, student Antonio Pace,
a known subversive,

saw me when I entered the building.

This is not true.

Student Antonio Pace
He has an indubitable record.

He wasn't in Rome that afternoon.

I interrogated him for hours,
my dear colleague,

and I did it my way!

Your Excellency, the bloody footprints
discovered in Augusta Terzi's apartment.

They did not come from interference in the investigation,
they came from my left shoe.

My dear friend,

there are thousands of shoes
of the same size and model.

I own a pair that are identical.

- Me too.
- Perhaps.

But I left fingerprints
throughout the apartment,

even in the shower register.

Because, gentlemen, Your Excellency,

I took a shower afterwards.

Strange.

All left prints on the record,
cups and doorknobs, except you.

Yes, but the blue line uncovered
under the nail comes from my tie.

So give us the tie
with the line missing.

- I destroyed it.
- Why?

At that moment I was torn
between putting them on my trail,

or use some of the power you had
to cover my tracks.

A dual personality, disassociated.

Neurosis.

A disease you are likely to contract
of the prolonged exercise of power.

It is an occupational disease,

common in those who hold the halter
of our poor little society in our hands.

I'm healthy.

Enough with psychology!

We need tangible proof of his guilt.

Not just the words, the facts.

I did that poor idiot we arrested
buy 25 blue ties.

It's not true.
He didn't recognize you.

Yes, but can we admit
what happened between us.

He denied it out of fear
When he started to realize who I was,

one cop.

I will not tolerate these
opinions and insinuations

against your colleagues,
against the battalion, our institution!

Let's talk directly.

Your reason.

- What was your reason?
- She made fun of me!

She made fun of me and our institution!

Our institution!

From all of you gentlemen!

This is not a demonstrable reason.

Please forgive me, Your Excellency.

Gentlemen, forgive me.
This is private.

It won't take long.

I bet on your discretion, Your Excellency.

As we met,

my childishness and my insecurities
were becoming more apparent.

Absurd! Impossible!
Science fiction!

Hence, then, I killed her
out of pure jealousy!

- You didn't know her.
- Go ahead. Taste it.

She wasn't his girlfriend.
They were never seen together.

That's right.

Just a moment, gentlemen.

I will seek evidence of my guilt.

Just a moment, gentlemen.

I'll be back quickly.

You killed someone worthless.

Anyone else could kill me.

Sooner or later,
it was my destiny to die that way.

Do what they say.

Think about your colleagues.

Think about your career.

Your Excellency, gentlemen,

These photos prove that the victim
It was photographed right here.

Look at the furniture, the floor.

Look, the victims in erotic positions

that perversely imitate photos
of crime scenes!

I abused the situation
For my love of amateur photography!

Disgusting!
See where we've come.

I'm on my last breath.

He's just an immature boy.

I always said I didn't have team spirit.

- See where things got to?
- I will petition the court!

It's your health.

I'll do whatever you want.

Well done, son.

Got something to say?

I confess my innocence.

Now sign here.

Everything is fine.
Calm down.

Gentlemen, colleagues,

let's not forget that it's out there
the enemy who knows the facts.

He will use it not only against me,

but against us all,

against power, against God!

This is a problem that we will have to solve.

Come in.

Make yourself comfortable, gentlemen.
