米兰，1992年2月，冰冷的风吹过意大利企业家们的办公室。这是属于“净手运动”的一年，由米兰地区检察官发起的反贪污政治调查吹响了变革的号角，其目的是给“贿赂之都”带来终结。莱昂纳多·诺德是这个错综复杂的权力游戏中的一个关键，他是一个聪明的广告人，他只相信自己，他将是第一批拥护新的“统治者”踏上政治舞台的人.....The early 1990s was an explosive period in Italian political history, notably for the "Clean Hands" (Mani Pulite) investigation that led to the collapse of The First Republic - Italy's first post war government. At the heart of the story are six individuals caught in the eye of the storm, which began with the arrest of the left-wing politician Mario Chiesa. As Italy struggled to put an end to large-scale political corruption, thousands of individuals from the police, mafia, public service and politics came under the microscope - some even committed suicide.
