Synopsis

In the not-too-distant future on Italy’s southern coast, the city of Taranto has become a toxic wasteland ruled by warring gangs and surrounded by barbed wire, where best friends Pietro and Cristian dream of escaping their hardscrabble existence for a better life. Opportunity knocks when a local gang called the Ants recruits Pietro and nicknames him Mondocane after a pet store he burned to the ground. He convinces them to accept Cristian as well, and the boys finally have everything they fantasized about: money in their pockets, a family, and a charismatic, if dangerous, father figure in gang boss Hothead. But with a new female friend pushing them apart, an obsessed cop hounding the gang, and Hothead becoming increasingly unhinged, the boys barrel toward a confrontation that will determine if their bond is strong enough to survive.
