1992

Politician Mario Chiesa’s arrest ignites a nationwide scandal: Italy’s Tangentopoli. As the political fallout spreads across the country, we follow the intertwining lives and ambitions of six main characters.

Showgirl Veronica’s tv career is on the verge of a major breakthrough, but the Tangentopoli affair seems to stop her in her track. Pietro, a Gulf war veteran, takes on the challenge of politics. Marketing executive Leonardo Notte attempts to hide his murky past as a radical left activist, while police officer Luca Pastore takes care of some personal business.

Police officer Luca finally gets his man, Leo's murky past is threatened to be exposed and Gulf War veteran-turned-politician Pietro grows disillusioned with parliament.

A suicide shakes the consciences of many of Milan's power players and forces everyone to confront their responsibilities and their political ambitions.

Luca is forced to face his darkest demons, Leo reflects on a morbid episode from his past and Pietro and Veronica find their lives heading in totally opposite directions.

Luca holds a secret meeting with Bibi, Leo takes a risky decision in order to brighten his future and Peter finds a reason to fight in parliament.
