About

Spinoff film of the Gangs of Milano series, with a special appearance by Alessandro Borghi.

Synopsis

Snake (Salmo) is a fugitive, wanted by the police for attempted murder: he has to erase his past and escape with a new identity. He lives and works inside a city-building, a hive of flats and shops run by a Chinese community, waiting for Arturo (Alessandro Borghi), an ex-convict from the same community, to get him a new passport. The same routine every day, waiting for a new life. What derails the plan is meeting Li (Elisa Wong), a neighbour caught up in a criminal score-settling: Snake offers to help her and the two fall in love. Things get complicated, and Snake will have to decide whether to give up his only chance to leave the city-building for good, or help Li.

About

Gangs of Milano is the Sky Original series set in the multi-ethnic outskirts of Milan, made with Italian rap pioneer Salmo as music supervisor and actor.

Synopsis

In the Blocco, the gang wars pit Bea — torn between her role as Segundera and the hope of a normal life — against Mahdi, who is trying everything to fill the void left by his uncle. Between them stands the Kasba, a gang of young, brazen kids: multi-ethnic, loud, unstoppable, led by Zak and Nael, two twenty-year-olds of Arab origin determined to make their way in music as in life. The return of Ludo, wounded and lost after an event he blames himself for, forces Bea, Ludo and Mahdi to face the bond each of them, in their own way, keeps denying.
