Marco Ferreri was one of the great masters of Italian cinema: irreverent and nonconformist, always poised between the ironic and the most extreme grotesque, he directed original and biting films, which made history, often achieving great box office takings.
And yet, twenty years after his untimely death, he was almost forgotten by the collective imagination. A real "killing", not even so metaphorical.
A mysterious detective, who moves like a character of other times, carries out a personal investigation into this hypothetical "crime".
Through the analysis of some of his most significant works, interviews with experts and scholars of the "seventh art", testimonies of those who knew him and repertoire images, the bizarre investigator comes to identify the "culprit": precisely that consumer society that the director has always stigmatized, since not "suspicious" times, today further deteriorated.
