Death Occurred Last Night (1970)

In the heart of Lombardia, a desolate widower, Amanzio Berzaghi, finds himself in the grimy corridors of a police station. He reports an unthinkable crime to Police Captain Duca Lamberti and his diligent assistant Mascaranti - his daughter, Donatella Berzaghi, a 25-year-old with the mental capabilities of a three-year-old, has been abducted and thrust into the sinister world of sex trafficking. Her nymphomaniac tendencies add an extra layer of complexity to her already vulnerable condition. As Lamberti and Mascaranti delve into the murky depths of Milan's underworld, they seek out Salvatore, a former pimp, to unravel the intricate web of brothels hiding Donatella. Their investigation becomes a desperate race against time, a quest to find Donatella before her bewildered father, who has embarked on his own heartbreaking search, does. However, when Donatella tragically turns up dead, the mission takes a grim turn. The lawmen now have a double task - to bring the ruthless killers to justice, and to deliver the devastating news to a father who has lost his only child. Amidst the whirlwind of emotions and the darkness of the crime, the police team must maintain their sanity and integrity, even as they navigate the labyrinth of an underworld that feeds on innocence and thrives on despair. "Death Occurred Last Night" is a chilling exploration of a father's love, a policeman's duty, and society's underbelly, wrapped in the suspenseful shroud of a crime thriller that will leave you on the edge of your seat.
