Gomorrah is a 2014 Italian television crime drama series. It is based on the book Gomorrah by Roberto Saviano[2]
Gomorrah is set in the suburbs of Naples, focusing on organised crime and the relationships of gangsters, drug dealers, and ordinary people. It offers a different style of mafia portrayal from previous series such as The Sopranos, or other Italian series like Il Capo dei Capi. Gomorrah is similar to The Wire in showing street-level crime and its hierarchical organisation from the pavement up to the office chair, and giving an audience a story about external and internal power struggles between criminals and delinquents. Described as "ugly in a good way,"[3] the series is fast-paced, concentrating on cold emotive content for dramatic effect.
