CONFESSIONS OF A POLICE CAPTAIN

He cut the red tape and left it full of bullet holes! Neat conceptions of justice, corruption and madness shatter in this hard-hitting investigative thriller from Damiano Damiani (THE DAY OF THE OWL, HOW TO KILL A JUDGE). In Palermo, Sicily, seasoned police captain Bonavia (Martin Balsam, PSYCHO) orders the release of a criminally insane inmate, only to watch him attempt to assassinate a local oligarch. When the plan backfires, Bonavia faces the scrutiny of idealistic DA Traini (Franco Nero, DJANGO). Balsam and Nero’s face-off is complemented by a striking supporting cast and an innovative jazz/po/guitar score by Riz Ortolani (CANNIBAL HOLOCAUST and one million other Italian movies).
