“Angelo Caronia (Riccardo Scamarcio) is a brilliant but arrogant police detective. After offending nearly everyone in his police station in Rome, he’s told to either apologize or risk a transfer. When he’s unable to swallow his pride and account for his mistakes, he’s shipped off to his hometown of Palermo.

Caronia is still haunted by the ghosts from his childhood. Returning means he will have to face his Mafiosa father, Ruggero Santocastro (Luigi Maria Burruano), and his half brother, Blasco (Michele Riondino). Over the years, both men have distanced themselves from Santrocastro, Angelo by becoming a cop, and Blasco by running his own company and refusing help from his father. Knowing what he will encounter in Palermo, Angelo begins therapy sessions by phone with a doctor, Treves (Roberto Herlitzka). Finding out if Santocastro is no longer a criminal is the only thing that will help Angelo put the past to rest.”
