List of Suburra: Blood on Rome episodes

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Suburra: Blood on Rome (Italian: Suburra - La serie) is an Italian crime drama television series set in Rome. It is based on the 2015 film Suburra, in turn inspired by the novel of the same name by Giancarlo De Cataldo and Carlo Bonini. The series was developed by Daniele Cesarano, Barbara Petronio, Ezio Abbate and Fabrizio Bettelli for Netflix, making it the first Italian-language original television series produced by the company.[1][2] It is produced by Cattleya in association with Rai Fiction and Bartleby Film.

Suburra draws from the real life events of the Mafia Capitale investigation and focuses on power clashes and corruption among organized crime, politicians and churchmen.[3][4] The series revolves around Aureliano Adami (Alessandro Borghi), an Ostia-based gang member, and his relations with Alberto "Spadino" Anacleti (Giacomo Ferrara), a Sinti gang member, and Gabriele "Lele" Marchilli (Eduardo Valdarnini), the only son of a policeman who becomes involved in crime. Samurai (Francesco Acquaroli), an antagonist to the Adamis, is the head of Roman organized crime and contact for the Sicilian Mafia in Rome; he approaches politician Amedeo Cinaglia (Filippo Nigro) to aid in his Ostia affairs. Sara Monaschi (Claudia Gerini) is a Vatican financial auditor for lands in Ostia.

During the course of the programme, 24 episodes of Suburra: Blood on Rome were released over three series, between 6 October 2017 and 30 October 2020.

Financial auditor Sara Monaschi tries to convince Monsignor Theodosiou, the head of the Vatican commission in charge of selling, to offer the property to her husband, in exchange for a sex party organized by Lele Marchilli, a young drug dealer who has just been asked to bring €20,000 to Samurai for having dealt in his territory. Aureliano Adami kills Sinti mobster Boris, annoyed at his father's decision to sell his land to Samurai and at the latter's request for peace between the Adamis and the Sinti Anacleti families. Spadino Anacleti, a closeted homosexual, is forced by his family to meet Angelica, his betrothed.
