A Question of Honour (Italian: Una questione d'onore) is a 1965 Italian comedy-drama film directed by Luigi Zampa. It was co-produced with France. The film was entered into the 16th Berlin International Film Festival.
Efisio is supposed to go Sardinia for killing a man whose remarks have besmirched the honour of another family. But before Efisio can comply, the targeted man gets murdered by another killer. Still Efisio is credited for the assassination. Later his wife turns out being pregrant and it is doubted whether it is Efisio's child because he has allegedly been in Sardinia at around the time when the child was probably fathered. Efisio's honour is questioned by a local mob and he takes drastic measures to restore his reputation.
