Italy, France 2024 Fiction cor 130’

Sicily, early 2000s. After serving several years in prison for Mafia-related crimes, Catello, a long-serving politician, has lost everything. When the Italian Secret Service “persuades” him to help capture Matteo, the last major Mafia boss still on the run, whom Catello has known since he was a boy, he sees an opportunity to stage a comeback. A shrewd man of a hundred masks, a tireless illusionist who turns truth into falsehood and falsehood into truth, Catello begins corresponding with the fugitive, exploiting the younger man’s emotional emptiness. With one of the most wanted criminals in the world, it’s a gamble which involves a degree of risk.

Presented at the Venice International Film Festival.
