A cold-lighted Palermo of the 90's. A single day. Unnamed characters slide towards the fulfillment of their destiny. A story of causes and effects, in which crimes affect not only the victims, but the perpetrators too. And from which no one, in a way or another, will stay unscathed.
By tracing the places of Vittorio De Seta films and looking for people who had contact with him, as the Cozzo Disi sulfur miners, Ganzirri swordfish fishermens and shepherds who attended in drama Banditi a Orgosolo, the documentary focuses on great change started in local cultures of the Southern Italy from 1945. The film includes an interview with De Seta, conversations with the film directors Luciano Tovoli, Franco Maresco, Gianfranco Pannone, writers Vincenzo Consolo, Goffredo Fofi, Eugenio Turri and the critic Marco Gazzano.

The video is inspired by Teicologia, by Antonio Pizzuto, one of the most important and significant authors of contemporary Italian literature. The video re-proposes Palermo through "a study of the walls" in a dimension that is not dictated by the reasoned discourse of hard news, but by a "signal beyond" fluctuating in matter that is neither reinterpreted nor brought back into the light. "My aim was to make the work of this great Sicilian literary man more well-known by means of a work made from languages that are contemporary for us and for him. Further, I aim to continue the perceptive work on Palermo that was started with Palermo, In sospensione, In sospensione (su Palermo), and La cena informale (Salvo Cuccia).

In 1987, to capitalize on his growing success in Europe, Prince toured extensively to promote the album of the same name and sales increased accordingly. However, the United States remained resistant to his latest album, and sales began to drop; it was at this point that Prince decided to film a live concert promoting the new material, for eventual distribution to theaters in America. Featuring the band that accompanied Prince on his 1987 Sign o' the Times Tour, including dancer Cat Glover, keyboardist Boni Boyer, bassist Levi Seacer, Jr., guitarist Miko Weaver, drummer Sheila E. and former member of The Revolution keyboardist Dr. Fink, the film sees the group perform live on stage (although "U Got the Look" is represented by its promotional music video).
