Seven Small Crosses

Directed by Vittorio Cottafavi

With Antonio Cannas, Carlo Bagno, Ivo Garrani, Tino Bianchi and Carlo Alighiero

Based on the short story "Sept petites croix dans un carnet" by Georges Simenon. "Sette piccole croci" was the first drama, non-series (what is today called a TV movie), as well as the first police thriller to be broadcast on Italian television. The story follows a tense cat-and-mouse chase across Paris on Christmas Eve.
