It was the night between December 15 and 16, 1969, when railwayman, anarchist and partisan Giuseppe Pinelli, known as “Pino,” died at the age of 41 after falling from a window of the Milan police headquarters, where he was being held for investigation after a bomb exploded at the Banca Nazionale dell’Agricoltura in Milan: now the documentary goes in search of the man, the husband and the father, with his ideas, his passions, his affections--starting from that fateful 1969 and arriving at 2009, when President Giorgio Napolitano called him “the 18th victim of the Piazza Fontana massacre.”

To mark the recent thirtieth anniversary of Sergio Leone’s death, this documentary sets out to pay tribute to one of the great legends of world cinema. The singular artistic vision of Sergio Leone has transcended national borders, creating the Spaghetti Western genre and transforming the international cinematic panorama forever with his innovative stylistic and narrative solutions, which have now become part of the language of the movies. The film, which is enriched with precious archive footage from the Cineteca di Bologna, including rare audio recordings and film clips shot behind the scenes, sees for the first time the direct participation of the Leone family and has interviews both with Leone’s longtime collaborators and with icons of Hollywood who have been profoundly influenced by his work.
