La banda Casaroli (1962): Cast & Plot

Gabriele Ingenis, a young man in a fog-draped Bologna square, roams among the crowd under the arcades, visibly dazed after a bloody shootout. An Istrian refugee, he had crossed paths months earlier with his old friend Corrado Minguzzi and Paolo Casaroli at a Bologna Luna Park, and that encounter seeds a dangerous partnership. The trio’s bond deepens into a shared, reckless fate as they acquire weapons and recruit a few occasional accomplices, dreaming of bigger grabs even as their first robbery—against a small bank in a Lombardy agricultural center—happens almost on impulse and with imperfect planning.
