- A retired police detective and a young amateur sleuth team up to find a serial killer who's resumed a killing spree in Turin, Italy after a 17-year period.
- Seduced by Jung, killed by hate, redeemed by history. In 1905 a 19-year-old Russian girl suffering from severe hysteria is admitted into a psychiatric hospital in Zurich. A young doctor, Carl Gustav Jung, takes her under his care and for the first time experiments with the psychoanalytical method of his teacher, Sigmund Freud. Based on recently exposed secret correspondence between Jung, Freud and Sabina Spielrein, this true story begins with the Spielrein's healing, closely related to her passionate love affair with Jung, followed by her return to post-revolutionary Russia ? where she became a psychoanalyst herself founding the famous White School ? and her sudden death in 1942, the victim of Nazi violence. The investigation of this story becomes an essential component of the film via two modern researchers, Marie, a young French scholar, and Fraser, a historian from Glasgow, who follow Sabina's life from Zurich to Moscow to Rostow, leading to the discovery of missing portions of the original correspondence. And since any exploration of others' lives inevitably leads to delving into one's own self, the two stories then finally interweave and are swept away in the passionate journey.
- The story of two men, both named Antonio Pisapia, who are on the decline and lead strangely parallel lives. One is a pop singer whose success ends after a sex scandal; the other is a football player whose career is cut short by an injury.
- Giacomo meets Giovanni, his former best friend with whom he quarreled three years before. Giovanni persuades him to go visit their third friend Aldo, who is dying in Sicily; flashbacks tell their story: Aldo was the phantom in operas, Giacomo was dubbing films in which he only made noises, and Giovanni worked as a living department-store mannequin. Unsatisfied with their careers, they try to stage their own show but women troubles separate them.
- Ilaria Alpi, a young, Italian war-corespondent, was on a dangerous mission in Somalia. While she covered the civil war, she also discovered a big and secret international environmental scandal. Together with her cameraman, she was killed in the streets of Mogadishu in March 1994.
- In the Sicily of the late 1940s, two brother sculptors, tired of selling madonnas to the local churches, finally realize their dream, and set up a Sicilian production company, thanks to the help of a local bishop. They start producing one box-office failure Z-movie after the other, all with terribly bad local non-pros as actors. Covered in debts, they finally have their great chance, when a local nobleman obsessed by magic decides to invest all his wealth in the making of a movie about Cagliostro, just one year after Orson Welles' Black Magic (1949). They hire a famous American actor (Robert Englund) and start shooting "The Return of Cagliostro".
- In un piccolo paese della Puglia (l'immaginaria "San Nicola a mare" - in realtà Vieste -) sconvolto dalla guerra, vive Sciusciù, un cinquantenne muto e senza tetto con l'anima e la mente di un bambino. Una notte Sciusciù è testimone dell'atterraggio di tre paracadutisti delle forze alleate: decide subito di aiutarli e di condurli al casolare di Annamaria, un'amica di cui si fida, riuscendo a convincerla ad offrirgli protezione.
