Suggested by user_77995
The protagonists of the film are two policemen: Shelley, psychologically unstable, lonely and intolerant of discipline (one would say a real tough guy, but sometimes appearances can be deceiving) and Gibbs, quiet, with an "almost" normal family life and who instead is subject to crises if he tries to violate some rules. The two investigate the murder of Bart Fisichella, an old colleague of Gibbs and in this investigation are helped by the informer David and the blonde Stella. After receiving the advice of the psychiatrist Carmelo Marciani, they will discover that behind the murder there is an incredible plot.
