The death of Venice port worker brings anger and outrage at the government. A small group of individuals decide to strike out at the government by kidnapping a high-ranking Minister. There’s the disgruntled longshoremen Toni, activist Pepe (Pierfrancesco Favino), Marxist militant Bauer (Giuseppe Battiston), ex-con Ramon (Paolo Sassanelli), and pretty TV journalist Marilu (Claudia Pandolfi). They’re all a bunch of misfits; it’s not surprising when they end up kidnapping the wrong man.
