Originally titled La Corsa Dell'Innocente, this Italian drama focuses on that country's ongoing wave of kidnappings. The early scenes focus on a large, outwardly normal Italian family who happen to make their living by abducting wealthy children and holding them for ransom.

This marvelously multitextured film represented the directorial debut of Carlo Carlei. Hal Erickson, Rovi
