The film was very popular at the major European film festivals that year, and its documentary photography style and complicated multi-line narrative were amazing and the birth of a realist masterpiece. During the viewing process, the author was astonished at how such a realistic film was shot in a gloomy and complex social environment.

The film tells the true story of an underworld organization in Italy, and people within its sphere of influence live in dire straits all the time. Robert Saviano, the author of the original novel of the film, received death threats from the underworld, and his life still needs police protection.

From this point of view, many filmmakers have been making films with their own lives.
