Gomorrah

Ciro is a promising young foot-soldier on the rise under Camorra clan leader Pietro Savastano. He is sent to deliver a clear message to a rival boss, but the ambush stirs up a bloody turf war. However, Savastano is satisfied he's come out on top. Meanwhile, Genny, Pietro's only son and heir, provokes the wrath of another local boss.

The authorities discover and seize a shipment of cocaine belonging to Pietro Savastano hidden in a larger shipment of canned goods. The boss is furious - he wants to find out which of his men tipped them off, but is preoccupied with settling the feud Genny has sparked.

Ciro is given an opportunity to climb the clan ladder. He meets with the financial advisor who launders money for the clan and brings along the immature Genny, but his actions only show he isn't yet ready to lead.

A Nigerian crack-dealing gang attempt to leverage their trading terms with the clan. The situation is unsustainable and Lady Imma, the tough boss's wife, thinks Pietro should be more concerned, but he has bigger fish to fry...

Franco Musi, the Savastano's financial advisor, invests money in a business venture without telling Pietro, thinking the boss would never find out. He must, however, answer to the cunning Imma.

Imma sends Ciro on a dangerous mission and decides it is finally time to give Genny a lesson in what it takes to become a clan leader. Imma assures him that he will soon start earning respect like that of his father.
