Based on Robert Saviano's bestselling book, this gritty Italian crime drama paints a portrait of the brutal Neapolitan crime organisation the Camorra, as seen through the eyes of Ciro Di Marzo, the obedient and self- confident right-hand man of the clan's godfather, Pietro Savastano.

'Gomorrah' is lauded for its intense realism, brutal mafia depiction, and high production values. Themes of relentless violence, complex characters, and unlikable protagonists are prominent. Often compared to 'The Sopranos' and 'Breaking Bad', it is noted for superior authenticity and grit. Cinematography, acting, and script receive acclaim, though some criticize inconsistencies in character development and plot. Its unflinching portrayal of Naples' criminal underworld is a standout feature.
