Death Occurred Last Night (La Morte Risale a lera Sera)

An astute mix of classic Italian crime and giallo, Duccio Tessari's Death Occurred Last Night is a dark slow burning murder mystery. A mentally handicapped woman is kidnapped and sold into sexual slavery, sending her distressed father and a jaded police detective on the hunt for clues in Milans underworld. Tessari (The Bloodstained Butterfly) keeps a tight rein on the action, focusing on the characters and their collective desire for justice and revenge.
