Pietro Zinni is in jail with his entire gang. But they cannot stay behind bars for long because Walter Mercurio is on the prow, ready to commit a massacre with the nerve gas.

This time they will need the help of their eternal enemy, the drug kingpin Murena. With his help, they will have to break out of Rebibbia’s penitentiary and anticipate Mercurio’s next moves, while trying to figure out how to neutralize the attack that he is.

Declaration

film director

“Ad honorem is a film that was written in one go, with gut feelings and heart, and what we ended up filming was basically the first draft. We had the sensation that we were following a pathway that was already marked: all the events of the first two movies helped lead us to a single and final solution. Ad Honorem completely respects the tradition of classic trilogy epilogues; it answers the questions in the preceding films but closes the circle in this definitive face-to-face between good guys and bad guys.”
