(Cast).

Based on the novel by Roberto Saviano, this film follows fifteen-year-old Nicola who lives with his mother and younger brother in a neighborhood of Naples that has been controlled by the Camorra mafia for centuries. Dreaming of a life luxurious with designer clothing and elite nightclub bottle service, Nicola and his gullible group of friends begin selling drugs, a door into the violent, power-hungry world of crime that begins to threaten their innocence, relationships, and safety.
