Synopsis

Spoiler shield

Italy, 1970. The sinister shadow of a mysterious serial killer, obsessed with Dante's Divine Comedy, relentlessly hunts down all those whose souls are evil and impure. Inspectors Moretti and Succo, in charge of solving the case, suspect that the wave of murders is related to a horrible crime committed 15 years earlier.
