    • Synopsis
    • «Certain things must be done now. This way, if you are sentenced to 20 years, when you go out of jail, you still have a whole life ahead». This is the understanding of the world of an army of “child soldiers” who learn to shoot at 10, become experienced killers by 20, and often don’t get to turn 30. In Naples, they are fighting a forgotten war for the control of the drug trade. For the first time on screen, these baby-bosses talk about themselves in a frank, unmediated manner, giving voice to such fierce sentiments whose disruptive power is totally unknown to the “normal” Country.
