One day the director Stefano Calvagna, victim of an attempted murder, is arrested and taken to jail. It is the beginning of the nightmare opening the doors of hell, so far from his own imagination as real and shocking. Stefano, in person, gives voice to the feeling of being uprooted, forced to bear away from his family and his world. The man, exhausted by deprivation of liberty and morally and physically devastated by the experience of the prison, began a dialogue with himself for being able to accept such suffering, and only subsequently reconstructs the causes of his predicament. He does so by deciding to tell the story of his personal legal matter with the help of people who do not judge the errors of mankind, but who decide to help the filmmaker. The result is a portrait of a greedy and corrupt society, where individuals are worth less than nothing.
