After his three roommates and colleagues are killed in a "freak gasoline-fight accident" (where they spray each other with station gasoline and one of them lights a cigarette), Derek announces his retirement from modeling and attempts to reconnect with his father Larry and brothers Luke and Scrappy by helping in the coal mines.

The evil emperor Shao Kahn, along with his generals, Motaro, Sheeva, Rain, and Ermac, opens a portal from Outworld to Earthrealm and has reclaimed his queen Sindel, who is Kitana's long-dead mother. Earthrealm is therefore in danger of being absorbed into Outworld within six days, a fate which Liu Kang and the others must fight to prevent. Kahn fights and quickly kills Johnny Cage during the confrontation by snapping his neck, and the remaining Earthrealm warriors must regroup and think of an idea to defeat Shao Kahn. An emotionally guilt-ridden Sonya Blade enlists the help of her old partner, Jax, while Kitana and Liu Kang search for a Native American shaman named Nightwolf, who seemingly knows the key to defeating Kahn. On the way, they run afoul of the cyborg Smoke. Kitana and Liu Kang dispatch him with the aid of Sub-Zero, but Scorpion suddenly appears, attacks Sub-Zero, and kidnaps Kitana.

Ce film raconte l'histoire réelle de Pietro Nava (Fabrizio Bentivoglio), l'unique témoin oculaire involontaire de l'assassinat par la mafia du magistrat italien Rosario Livatino en 1990. Citoyen ordinaire, Nava décide de ne pas respecter l'omertà, devenant alors une cible prioritaire à abattre car il est susceptible de reconnaître les tueurs et de témoigner contre eux. À l'époque, aucun programme de protection des témoins à risque n'existe en Italie. Nava subit alors les tâtonnements de la justice italienne et bénéficie d'une protection policière permanente qui le force à sacrifier sa vie privée (il quitte sa femme Franca (Margherita Buy) et sa famille, il perd son logement et son métier, doit changer d'identité et se déplacer régulièrement sans pouvoir travailler ni sortir seul et librement) pour continuer à vivre.
