Anti-Mafia Squad

On the gritty battleground of Sicily, a disciplined anti mafia squad targets a brutal, sprawling criminal network that grips the region.

This is not a quick victory tale but a tense look at how a determined police corps fights a living, evolving threat. Night shifts, undercover ops, and tense stakeouts push characters to the limits, exposing the cost of service and the toll on their personal lives.
