Remarkably, the CIA never put hand to the extensive 8mm footage of the group that they filmed of themselves, here inter-cut with contemporary interviews of the group, friends and family. Daniele, now a fortune-teller and future consultant, reading tea cups, appears endlessly amused by the quixotic idealism of his youth… This film is a revealing journey through the armed struggle of the 1970s, an entry into the cosmos of spirituality, and finally in 1989, a first-class ticket to freedom.
