Directed by Bernardo Bertolucci
A young man is called to his hometown by the former mistress of his long-dead father to investigate the death of his father, a hero of the anti-Fascist resistance who was murdered by unknown assassins while plotting against Mussolini. The son’s quest becomes more like a suspenseful game of cat-and-mouse at each turn, as past and present, father and son, hero and traitor, blend and blur.
