Un uomo in ginocchio

Mistaken as a witness to a crime, Nino (Giuliano Gemma), learns from a friend he has been put on a Mafia hit list and is being stalked by an assassin (Michele Placido). A man with a troubled past, Nino knows only too well what he faces and uses all his strength and cunning to keep himself and his family alive. Featuring stunning performances from both leads, Damiano Damiani applies his trademark realism and socio-political commentary to A Man on His Knees, charting Nino’s desperation as he refuses to kneel before the power of organised crime.
