Programme Information

It's all in a day's work for Harry Callahan (Clint Eastwood). Harry is a plainclothesman with the San Francisco police department and for his new partner, Chico (Reni Santoni).

A bank robbery and an attempted suicide form the prelude to the main event: catching a skillful sniper who is murdering the innocent while holding a city to ransom.

Catching him becomes a war between good and evil - with the protagonists on both sides shown as ruthless, bitter and merciless products of a violent society.
