Description:
This documentary explores the violent Italian "poliziotteschi" film movement of the 1970s. While superficially resembling American crime films like *Dirty Harry* or *The Godfather*, these movies actually tackled pressing Italian issues such as the Sicilian Mafia and political terrorism. The movement's distinctive, fast-paced production methods – including actors performing their own stunts, improvisational filming, and the absence of live sound – were as notable as the films themselves, blurring the lines between real-world crime and cinematic portrayal.
