Plot
In the evening school of Andrea and Maria, in Milan, a group of eleven boys, mostly bad boys and small street criminals between thirteen and twenty, brutally murders the teacher Matilde Crescenzaghi with no apparent reason. The police began to investigate the murder, but found no clear evidence or sufficient information to shed light on the mysterious affair. Pressed by the investigating judge who wants to close the case, but also seized by remorse and by their own conscience as a policeman, the police-chief Luigi Càrrua entrust the case to the Commissioner Lamberti, his friend and collaborator. The latter begins to investigate, remaining impressed by the brutality of the murder, and begins to assume that it was a personal vendetta. Lamberti insists with Càrrua to question the boys in his own way, treating them harshly, and with coercive methods such as using anise milky to intimidate them and using of a language rather threatening and slang, begin to slowly come to the knowledge of important elements: one of the boys was gay and therefore could not take part in the massacre, and some pupils often used to go to Switzerland to illegally smuggle cigarettes and drugs. With the help of the agent Mascaranti and social worker Livia Hussar, Lamberti will soon come to the truth, also helped by the confession of pupil Fiorello Grassi and trust of Carolino Marassi, another pupil at night school where the murder was committed.
