Enrico Vallesi turned his back on his hometown of Bari years ago. However, when he reads in the newspaper that a certain Salvatore was shot during a robbery, long-suppressed memories resurface. Enrico realizes that he must finally confront his past and returns to Bari. He was a reserved teenager who eventually decided to stand up against injustices. Salvatore, an older classmate, offered him a secret training as a thug, and Enrico began to lead a double life: at home, he was the compliant student, while with Salvatore, he was the hardened fighter. But then Salvatore took him on a mission that would change everything.
