As dusk falls, police commissioner D'Angelo get ready to begin his workday. The agent Antonio has been murdered by three hoodlums: Eli, a silent and thoughtful woman; Arm, a boy who is almost post-adolescent; and the Francese, a domineering man of faith and an inveterate smoker. D'Angelo finds Antonio's body lying on a tree along the Po river. Although he has no proof, the commissioner arrests the three murderers.
