White Uno

8.5

2001

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?

Determined to unmask the culprits, he begins a meticulous analysis of their methods, identifying one of the robbers as a police officer from Bologna. Thwarted by his superiors, who prefer to accuse Slavs and terrorists, the inspector decides to infiltrate the gang, composed of unscrupulous police officers with a history of violent practices. Having gained their trust, he brings them to justice after much difficulty, even managing to identify a spy within his own police department.
