Skinheads
Drama
22-year-old Marco leads an aimless life in Rome's suburbs. One day he meets skinhead Saverio, aka 'Führer', head of a local neo-nazi chapter. Marco becomes fascinated with their single-minded purpose and ends up joining Führer's group, partaking in bullying, beatings, and other violent activities. However he is hiding his previous relationship with an immigrant Somalian girl.
VIBE
This is a raw, unsettling descent into a world of stark ideology and simmering aggression. It feels like a tense, unflinching character study, exploring the allure of belonging amidst bleak urban landscapes. The atmosphere is heavy and confrontational, painting a picture of radicalization with a palpable sense of dread and moral conflict.
