Sweets from a Stranger

In Rome, a serial killer stalks and murders sex workers, leaving the community terrified and the authorities struggling to stop the violence. Four women, banding together to protect themselves, take matters into their own hands, leading to a tense web of fear, rumors, and suspicion as they dig for clues on their own. Directed by Franco Ferrini in 1987, this Italian thriller film is a subdued, socially conscious exploration of the genre, blending elements of giallo with social realism.
