The images are inspired by Valerio Morucci's A guerra finita a collection of stories retelling the preparations, techniques, and means employed to commit a certain terrorist act - which, however, was bloodless - in the 1970's: that is, the complicated delivery of the ransom of the ship fine owner, Costa, kidnapped by the Red Brigade. It is a cold story a kind of thriller from which most of the emotions have been removed. The realistic description of a particular day for a couple of people living clandestinely.
