Italy, 1930s. Marcello is haunted by the death of a homosexual who he thinks he has killed. The fear of conforming himself to the majority pushes him to join the Fascists and to marry Giulia, a bourgeoise who perfectly represents his social ideals. He will find himself as an accomplice in the assassination of Luca Quadri, his former college philosophy professor, an intellectual opponent of Mussolini who has taken refuge abroad.
