In his absurdly delirious treatise on corruption and power, Petri portrayed a Jesuit-organized spiritual gathering of the Christian Democratic elite. The detective plot, in which highly-placed politicians are eliminated under mysterious circumstances, strengthens what is clearly the most uncompromising example of a political film anywhere. Mastroianni and Volonté star in a movie so unwelcome it was relegated to oblivion. (Karlovy Vary International Film Festival)
