In a mid-sized metropolis (population 500,000) in a right-wing military led country, a pacifist organization, which supports the opposition party in the government, is planning on holding an anti-military, nuclear disarmament rally. The organizations charismatic leader - the deputy - is scheduled to arrive in the town from the capital the day of the rally. Beyond the problems arranging the rally due to the probable incitement of violence at such a rally, the organization learns of an unconfirmed report that there will be an attempt on the deputys life. The rally does happen, after which a three-wheeled kamikaze runs over the deputy, who eventually passes away from his injuries. The official report is that the incident was a drunken accident. In reality, the deputys death was murder orchestrated by the secret police, the general for who likens the pacifist organization to mildew killing off agricultural crops. A magistrate is assigned to the case. Although he does have political views, he is more interested in finding out the truth, and as such has to wade through the political rhetoric and politically motivated testimony he hears. Thrown into the mix is a photojournalist who too is looking for the truth, as it, he believes, will make a great front page story.
In a northern Greek city in the 1960s, a leading opposition politician is attacked while his party is holding a rally. The dead mans party was against foreign intervention in national affairs and was seen as a threat to national security. The cover-up begins almost immediately with the police claiming the dead man was struck by a drunk driver. A prosecutor assigned to the case and he interviews everyone involved, gathering evidence which shows the assassination was potted by senior policemen and right-wing extremists. Getting appropriate actions proves to be something else entirely.
