Gomorrah
Based on an Italian nonfiction bestseller about the Neapolitan mob known as the Camorra, Garrone's film travels from the horrifying slum projects of suburban Naples to the corporate suites and the high-fashion ateliers, and finds them all poisoned and corrupted by organized crime.
The audience is thrown into the middle of five different chaotic stories. Two brash teenage boys decide to wage war against the local Camorra boss, a drunken, video-game-addicted man who makes Tony Soprano look like Lorenzo de Medici
A tailor in a mob-supported fashion business secretly goes to work for their Chinese-sweatshop rivals. A businessman arranges the illegal dumping of corporate toxic waste on mob-owned land.
A likable kid who delivers groceries and an aging mob soldier who drops off money become pawns in a widening gang war.
Garrone finds marvelous, dark, symbolic and poetic images in the appalling and decrepit urban-rural sprawl of Naples, where Chinese immigrants live in a building that's missing exterior walls and a pair of hit men stalking their prey must plod ankle-deep through the muck of an ox-shed.
Gomorrah is released on DVD 9th February
