An odd couple of contrasting cops: one is a disillusioned veteran, the other young, idealistic and speaks fluent Arabic. Ideal for tailing Khalid (Ahmed Hafiene), who was acquitted but is still suspected of having ties with Al-Qaida. The two cops, who initially can't stand each other, find themselves increasingly in contact with the life and habits of Khalid. As the story goes the suspect catches on to them, but when he begins receiving threats the cops become his bodyguards, his escort. Being nearer to him, and knowing him better, the two cops end up making almost friends with the man. At last it comes out that Khalid is the victim of a legal error. He makes accusations against the Italian's justice, but this leads to his expulsion from Italy. The young policeman undertakes a voyage in search of Khalid, that will lead him to Tunisia, and to some final twists.

Three episodes about the relativity of time.

Два мафиозных итальянских клана завязывают длительную борьбу за политическое и финансовое влияние после того, как один из грабителей присваивает себе крупную сумму денег... Фильм основaн нa реaльных событиях и снят по мотивaм многолетней борьбы итaльянских прaвоохрaнительных оргaнов против «козa-ностры», в которую были вовлечены (среди прочих) тaкие реaльные лицa, кaк судья Джовaнни Фaльконе, бaнкир Микеле Синдонa, перебежчик-«пентито» Томмaзо Бушеттa. Действие происходит в 1970-е годы в Итaлии и в СШA: убийство в Милaне aдвокaтa, рaсследующего мaфиозные схемы, крaх финaнсистa Спинолa, выход из тюрьмы одного из «кaпо» мaфии Вaнни Рaгузa. Кто победит в этой жуткой мясорубке? Государство или однa из группировок временно ослaбевшей мафии, желaющей вернуть свое влияние…

In Naples, Professor Bellavista is a retired man, passionate about the philosophy and thought of Ancient Greece. Every day, in his luxurious apartment, he teaches his lessons of life to the poor-nothing (his friends), who are dazzled by his reasoning. One day, however, the quiet life of the building of Bellavista will be disturbed by the arrival of a director of Milan. Between Naples and Milan there contrast, because the Neapolitans are accustomed to enjoy a quiet life, always based on the "philosophy of pleasure and delay", while the northern Italians are very strict and punctual.
