Giulio Manieri is the firebrand leader of an anarchist movement in 1875 Italy, who, defeated in the attempted takeover of a village, kills the mayor. Locked in solitary confinement, Giulio makes the hours pass by fantasizing about a glorious future in which his actions will be regarded as heroic, even holding imaginary conversations with fellow partisans who assure him of his place in the pantheon of anarchism. After a decade of incarceration, Giulio boards a boat to be relocated to another prison and encounters a younger group of dissidents who have opted for a more pragmatic, reformist politics…Adapted from a short story by Leo Tolstoj. 
The Taviani Brothers won the Interfilm Award – Recommendation at the 1972 Berlin Film Festival for this classic masterpiece.
