Biography of director, poet, revolutionary theoretician, intellectual, filmmaker, and actor Pier Paolo Pasolini.

The documentary begins with a meeting of six people on the beach of Ostia, twenty-five years after the death of director, poet, revolutionary theoretician, intellectual, filmmaker, and actor Pier Paolo Pasolini. The program, shot in various Italian enclaves, that marked the life of Pasolini (Casarsa, his hometown, the Friuli region, where he fought with peasants against "latifundistas", Pordenone, where is the most complete photographic and documentary archive on his work or Rome, where he lived most of his life), begins and ends at the beach of Ostia, where the corpse was found in the early hours of November 2, 1975, in clear homage to the director's concept of death as "beginning and end".—Anonymous
