Ti mangio il cuore (2022)

Fine picture of mafia dynamics

The film is a fine description of the dynamics in place between different mafia families, and it shows how these families fight for their power. I think the choice of portraying the story in black and white is a good one and it matches the cruelty of the reality portrayed, where despair, blood, vengeance and craving for power are the real protagonists.

On the other side, the love romance between the two protagonists stays in the background. Someone could remain disappointed since the trailer is very much based on the love relationship between Marinella and Andrea.

The story is also inspired by real events.
