Nel 1992 l'Italia si fermò. Si fermò davanti alle inchieste dei magistrati che si aprivano una dietro l'altra senza sosta. Il paese intero si fermò sconvolto dal rumore delle manette, dal fruscio delle mazzette, dalle voci dei giornalisti che si affannavano e si accavallavano per raccontare le gesta di politici, di imprenditori e di giudici.
