action
Episode 1. Directed by Nelo Risi - Documentation of the worldwide politically motivated events from 1968 to 1969, beginning with the Vietnam War, through the assassinations of Martin Luther King and Robert Kennedy, to the death of Giuseppe Pinelli in Milan.
Episode 2. Directed by Elio Petri - ( Tre Ipotesi Sulla Morte dell'Anarchco Giuseppe Pinelli ) In three versions (hypotheses) the scene in the police building is re-enacted during which Giuseppe Pinelli died. Four men play the policemen and one the arrested Pinelli. What all the scenes have in common is that they cannot find a conclusive approach as to how Pinelli could have managed to jump out of the window while being guarded, which is why in the third version they throw him out of the window together and portray it as suicide.
Episode 3. Directed by Nelo Risi - Documentation about Giuseppe "Pino" Pinelli and his activities. Friends, political comrades-in-arms and other contemporary witnesses have their say, reflecting a complex picture of Pinelli's personality.
