In a journey from 1944 to 1973, the film alternates footage, testimonies, and animations: the Berlinguer years in Milan, the '68 movements and the Contestation, the Prague Spring, the young politician's role alongside great leaders such as Palmiro Togliatti first and Luigi Longo later, his democratic vision that would become anti-Soviet, and his relationship with the USSR throughout the 1960s.

Secretary of the most influential Communist Party in the Western world, Enrico Berlinguer challenged the international balance by seeking to bring the Communists to government in Italy and achieve socialism in a democratic country. From 1973, when he escaped an attack by the Bulgarian secret services, to the assassination of his main ally Aldo Moro in 1978, not forgetting his trips to Moscow and the covers of Time: the story of a man who wanted to change the world, but failed.

Activist Bayard Rustin faces racism and homophobia as he helps change the course of Civil Rights history by orchestrating the 1963 March on Washington.
