When a series of Supreme court judges are murdered, inspector Rogas (Lino Ventura, Army of Shadows) is sent to discover the truth. A procedural noir soon turns to a labyrinthine conspiracy in which corruption and institutional power converge. An investigative thriller by a titan of the form, Francesco Rosi (The Mattei Affair) brings Leonardo Sciascia's (The Day of the Owl) novel to the screen with urgent relevance, set to a haunting score by Piero Piccioni (The Tenth Victim) and featuring legendary stars Charles Vanel (The Wages of Fear), Max von Sydow (The Exorcist)... and Fernando Rey (The French Connection).BLU-RAY LIMITED EDITION SPECIAL FEATURES4K restoration of the film by Cineteca di Bologna at L'Immagine Ritrovata and The Film FoundationOriginal uncompressed mono PCM audioAudio commentary by filmmaker Alex Cox (2021)Archival interview with director Francesco Rosi (1982)Archival interview with Francesco Rosi and Lino Ventura (1982)Interview with Gaetana Marrone, author of The Cinema of Francesco Rosi (2025)TrailerReversible sleeve featuring designs based on original postersBooklet featuring new writing on the film by Michael Atkinson, and newly translated writing by and interview with RosiLimited edition of 3000 copies, presented in full-height Scanavo packaging with removable OBI strip leaving packaging free of certificates and markings [show more]
