Fists in the pocket = I pugni in tasca / una produzione Doria Cinematografica S.R.L. ; organizzatore generale, Enzo Doria ; scritto e diretto da Marco Bellocchio.
Tormented by twisted desires, a young man takes drastic measures to rid his grotesquely dysfunctional family of its various afflictions, in this debut film from Marco Bellocchio. Characterized by a coolly assured style, shocking perversity, and savage gallows humor, it was a gleaming ice pick in the eye of bourgeois family values and Catholic morality, a truly unique work that continues to rank as one of the great achievements of Italian cinema.
