Soon, history comes a-knocking; in 1978, the Red Brigades kidnap former Prime Minister Aldo Moro, holding him captive and demanding the release of political prisoners as ransom. After a brief stint as an aloof, romantic crook, Toni has a head-on collision with the Years of Lead when a state policeman referred to only as “The Tailor” (Claudio Santamaria) enlists Toni’s meticulous forgery skills for “the common good.” He must forge a communiqué from the Red Brigade announcing that Aldo Moro has killed himself in their custody, even though he hasn’t. It’s a commission from the big leagues that Toni’s ego can’t resist, but it leads to a rude awakening about the cost of his self-serving ethos in a dangerous political moment.
