Romanzo Criminale (2008)

In the sinister underbelly of Rome, a formidable criminal known as Lebanese dreams of reigning supreme over the city's underworld. Armed with a meticulously crafted gang of ruthless outlaws, he embarks on a groundbreaking quest to seize control. Over a volatile span of twenty-five years, from the gritty 1970's to the chaotic '90's, Lebanese and his successors, the cold-blooded Freddo and charismatic Dandi, ascend the criminal ranks, their rise paralleling the dark chapters of modern Italy - a time marked by terror, high-profile kidnappings, and high-level government corruption. As they traverse this treacherous path, they find themselves relentlessly pursued by the tenacious Police Lieutenant Scialoia, who is driven not only by his quest for justice but also by his unspoken love for Dandi's captivating girlfriend, Patrizia. Romanzo Criminale paints a riveting saga of crime and love, set against the backdrop of a nation grappling with its darkest hours.
