"En un país regido por una precaria democracia y dominado por las fuerzas policiales y militares que pretenden erradicar cualquier amenaza izquierdista, un diputado de la oposición es asesinado en plena calle cuando acaba de presidir un mitin de carácter pacifista. La investigación del caso es encomendada a un joven magistrado consciente de que se trata de un crimen político cometido por dos sicarios a sueldo. Un ambicioso periodista utiliza métodos poco ortodoxos para acumular pruebas inculpadoras contra varios militantes de un partido de extrema derecha, mientras éstos derivan la responsabilidad hacia altos cargos de la policía y del ejército"
"SUMMARY: "Costa-Gavras chronicles the overthrow of the democratic government in Greece. When a liberal politician is murdered in an attack during a peace demonstration, the right wing established figures in the military and the police try and hide not only their parts in it, but try to cover up the murder as well. The prosecutor must act as a detective in order to go through the cover up. While historically accurate, it is told as a combination mystery and thriller." IMDB"
