Gomorrah

Synopsis

Based on the best selling book by Roberto Saviano Gomorrah is a story of power, money and blood. These are the "values" that the residents of the province of Naples and Caserta confront every day; they have practically no choice, and are forced to obey the rules of the "system"- the Gomorra. Only a lucky few can even think of leading a "normal" life. Five stories are woven together in this violent scenario, set in a cruel and ostensibly fictional world, but one that is deeply rooted in reality.
DVD extras include: Interview with Roberto Saviano / Interview with Toni Servillo, Salvatore Cantalupo, Gianfelice Imparato / Deleted Scenes / Gomorrah - 5 Stories: Making Of featurette.
