Plot

In the pulsating heart of Italy, Luciano Lutring, a notorious outlaw, finds himself ensnared in a perilous dance of love and crime. His heart is captivated by Candida, a sultry nightclub chanteuse, igniting a love triangle with her current flame, Franco Magni, a low-level mobster. Thriving on the adrenaline of infamy, Lutring's boldness escalates, orchestrating a symphony of audacious jewelry heists and swiftly selling the spoils before the law can catch his scent. This cinematic gem is one of the inaugural entries in the wave of poliziesco films and finds its roots in the intriguing real-life tale of Luciano Lutring. Known in the media as the "machine gun soloist" for his unique choice of stashing his weapon in a violin case, his notorious legacy continues to intrigue and thrill audiences.
