Italian cinema has followed a long tradition of making political cinema. The idea is to highlight strengths and weaknesses of Italian political system. Apart from famous Italian conscience keeper Francesco Rosi, Elio Petra has also made excellent films which have depicted political unrest faced by post war Italian nation. "Investigation of a Citizen Above Suspicion" is a frank yet bleak portrayal of a corrupt, fraudulent Italian society which is heaviliy dependent on its crooked police force. After watching this film, one can easily state that all corrupt societies are hindrance to human progress. Italian police is one of the most corrupt police forces in the world. This has been proved in this film by showing a perverted soul for whom power and sexuality go hand in hand. Gian Maria Volonte is excellent as an honorable police officer, citizen who is above all kinds of suspisions. This film is similar to Kitano Takeshi's masterpiece "Violent Cop". Both films show that even when a criminal is caught, crime fails to stop as the dirty political system is allowed to grow at the expense of common man.
