Another ‘Gomorrah’ TV Series About the Mob? Some in Naples Say, ‘Basta.’

A banner over Naples’ iconic streets read "Gomorrah doesn’t support you anymore," as the Italian crime drama and its city once again become entangled in a cultural vortex. The show's origins, set in its gritty Spanish Quarter, trace the 1970s roots of the Camorra clan. Despite its widespread popularity, from movies to a 2014 TV series that ran for five seasons, including a spinoff and a film about young crime bosses, the city’s tourism shops owner, Gennaro Di Virgilio, expressed frustration: "Basta," meaning "enough."
