Based on a novel by Alberto Moravia, Bernardo Bertolucci's film is a character study of a man who "conforms" to the ideological fashions of his days. Set in 1930s Italy, Marcello has spent his life accommodating others, in search for a sense of belonging. When he is drawn into the fascist party, he agrees to assassinate a political refugee who turns out to be his former college professor.
