“…ranks alongside the best of Martin Scorsese and Francis Ford Coppola” -Stephen Holden, New York Times
“The Godfather meets Nixon” – Roger Ebert, Chicago Sun Times

For more than 50 years, he has been Italy’s most powerful, feared and enigmatic politician. And as Giulio Andreotti begins his seventh term as Prime Minister, he and his hardliner faction take control of a country reeling from the brazen murders of several high-level bankers, judges and journalists, as well as the kidnapping and assassination of former Prime Minister Aldo Moro. But as the Christian Democrat party crumbles in a nationwide bribery scandal, suspicion begins to fall on Andreotti himself as the center of a shocking conspiracy involving the Vatican, the Mafia and the secret neo-Fascist Masonic Lodge P2. In what is called “The Trial Of The Century,” Italy’s legendary Senator for Life will stand accused of corruption, collusion and murder.
