Summary |
Power, money & blood...These are the 'values' that the residents of Italy's Campania region confront daily. They have little choice but to obey the mafia-enforced rules of the 'System', the Camorra. Gomorrah recounts five true stories - the accountant; the tailor; the new blood; the apprentice, and the hotheads - that detail the intricate control the Camorra have over day-to-day life in Southern Italy. |
