In the Shadow of Lemmy Caution

In the Shadow of Lemmy Caution

2002 · ★ 9.0 · Crime

The "registered package" of a lifeless body in front of the door of a former police officer's house marks the beginning of a crazy dance of events. This is how a game between the past and the present begins, without anyone knowing the reasons and causes. Seemingly unrelated cases, links in a chain that the hero is called upon to connect and solve the mysteries. Are these random events or staged and premeditated traps? Mysteries, murders, characters that are as current and relevant as ever, the world of nightlife, the underworld, so-called "high society," modern technology, and floppy disks containing incriminating evidence. People with many faces and roles, dark faces, well hidden. Wealth, power and its obedient instruments, drugs, the emptiness and irony of modern, lonely life...
