Rimini, 1991. For more than a year, the uno bianca gang – they always use a white Fiat Uno – has plagued the area. Their crimes are violent, sometimes killing carabineri, and there’s no particular pattern: a bank one day, a petrol station the next, extortion of a small business the next. Are they terrorists? A foreign gang? Tied to the Mafia? After a particularly bloody shootout, two detectives are assigned to start fresh: they go through the notebooks of previous investigators and they interview a few witnesses again. They find a pattern in the crimes and predict the next assault, but the special task force in Bologna is dismissive. Can they carry on alone; how far will they get?

In 1994, an armistice gave control of Karabakh and the Azeri territory in-between to Armenia.

Then, Hovhannisyan revisits the soldiers now, bringing prints of stills and frontline footage on his laptop. Although they have put on some weight, many of them are “victims of the peace,” as Hovhannisyan calls it in his voice-over.
