November 2, 1975: Pier Paolo Pasolini is murdered in the outskirts of Rome. The suspect, a 17-year-old hustler, pleads to have acted in self-defense, citing Pasolini's notorious sexual habits as proof. However, many inconsistencies start to undermine his version, pointing to him not having acted alone or even being assaulted in the first place. Was Pasolini also killed for another reason?

🎬 MovieFinder's Take

Giuseppe Bertolucci constructs the film as a police dossier intertwined with a political thriller. It explores not just the circumstances of the death, but the atmosphere of 1970s Italy, where art, power, and violence form a fatal knot. The narrative relies on facts yet leaves room for disturbing questions.

What lingers after the credits is a grim, procedural immersion into one of culture's most enigmatic deaths. The film leaves you with the weight of an unresolved truth and the price paid by a radical voice. — MovieFinder Editorial

Director: Marco Tullio Giordana

Best Watched

Watch in silence, as a procedural documentary. Best for a contemplative evening.
