Indeed, local gang leader, Villanova, has framed Xavier. Roberto confronts the mobster and kills him. Later, while helping Xavier's sister (Claudia Cardinale) to fight an American gang of racketeers, Roberto is caught by the police and is put in the same prison with Xavier. Then the two volunteer to clear land mines left from the last war, hoping to receive a pardon. The same story was previously filmed as Un nommé La Rocca also starring Belmondo. ~ Yuri German, Rovi
