"Gomorra" is a contemporary Neapolitan mob drama that exposes Italy's criminal underbelly by telling five stories of individuals who think they can make their own compact with Camorra, the area's Mafia.
Directed by Matteo Garrone (THE EMBALMER), this gritty and violent drama walks the crime-filled streets of Naples. GOMORRAH features five interwoven plots about the region's inhabitants who suffer under the rule of a group of criminals called the Camorra. This film is based on the critically acclaimed nonfiction book by Robert Saviano, who also co-wrote the screenplay.
Adapted from Roberto Saviano's controversial non-fiction book, Matteo Garrone's crime drama Gomorrah examines how organized crime reaches deep into every facet of life in Naples, Italy by telling the tale of over a dozen different characters. Among the main protagonists is a pair of wannabe thugs who take their cue from movie gangsters, a grocery-delivery boy who must learn to kill, and a criminal mastermind who plots to make a fortune while dumping toxic waste near overpopulated communities.
Macht, geld en bloed: dat zijn de dingen waar de inwoners van de provincies Napels en Caserta elke dag mee worden geconfronteerd. Ze hebben haast geen keus en zijn altijd gedwongen de regels van het 'systeem' te gehoorzamen, de Camorra. Slechts enkele gelukkigen kunnen aan een normaal leven denken. Vijf verhalen worden in deze gewelddadige setting met elkaar verweven.
