Story
A screen version of the highly social novel “Context” ( Italian: Il contesto ) by Leonardo Shasha , which talks about corruption and the merging of the judicial system with the mafia. And even the courageous confrontation of the honest policeman Amerigo Rogas, who opposes the prevailing vicious system of justice, remaining, in fact, alone with the judicial mafia, does not change the mood of hopelessness, uncertainty and disappointment generated by such a practice.
Here's how film critic L. Alova responds to work on this picture [1] :
“... finally, 'The Shining Corpses ', where corruption, criminality in the upper echelons of power become the subject of deep social analysis, Rosie the artist, like Rosie the analyst, is meticulous in the selection of facts, pedantic in following the aesthetics of the document, meticulous in psychological accuracy a picture of each role, major or minor. "He never compromises with realism as a method of comprehending the true background of plots and problems that he chooses for his films.”
