In the aftermath of the G8 Summit in Genova, Italy, a group of Italian police brutally beat, torture, and rape protesters, resulting in a massive cover-up by the Carabinieri. The film follows the story of a group of prisoners who were brutally abused by the police and the subsequent court case that tries to bring justice to those responsible.

The film recounts Carlo Giuliani’s day of July 20 and, parallel to it, the July 20 of the march of the ‘disobedients’, or the ‘white overalls’, among whose ranks Carlo died. An individual’s story is told in all its absolute concreteness, the friends he meets, the snack bar he goes to for a bite, the roll of scotch tape he picks up on the street; whereas a multitude’s story is told in all its epic tragedy, the night under the rain, the colossal preparation against the march, the advance behind shields, the attack of which the multitude was victim, the defense that gets organized.

As the 'one country two systems' policy in Hong Kong has slowly eroded, resentment among the territory's citizens has steadily grown. What began as a series of spontaneous protests against an extradition law in March 2019 has now escalated in to a full-blown popular uprising that shows no signs of abating. ABC Four Corners reports from the frontline of the action, capturing extraordinary footage of the growing tension and violence.

Made from a combination of footage of the Genoa protests against the G8 shot by 10 members of IMC Ireland, material from the Italy IMC Archives and material from various other sources, this footage, combined with on-the-spot interviews and reenacted voiceover commentary and analysis from various websites which were active during the protests, provides a in-depth, blow-by-blow retelling of the story of the three days of the Genoa protests against the G8.
