Synopsis

During G8 summit, the Diaz Pascoli School in Genoa had been set up as a social forum for journalists, young men and women from all over Europe. As the summit was drawing to a close, the young people were in good spirits in spite of the violent clashes with the police that had occurred during the previous days. The various anti-globalization protests had been met with heavy police presence. Yet nothing could prepare the temporary inhabitants of the Diaz school for what was to happen next. Shortly after midnight, the police stormed the school and brutally attacked these young people until almost all of them ended up in hospital. To justify their actions, the police planted Molotov cocktails in the building. Told from different perspectives, we observe the events of the day from the vantage point of both the perpetrators and the targets.
