The Immortal

Set between post-earthquake Naples in the 1980s and present-day Riga, the cinematic spin-off from the international hit series Gomorrah follows the early life and current exile of Ciro Di Marzio, aka “The Immortal”. An innovative, unprecedented cross-media project, in which a stand-alone film becomes a segment of the story arc between two seasons of a television series.

Having been shot in the chest by his only real friend Genny, Ciro sinks down into the dark waters of the Gulf of Naples. As he drifts towards the depths, memories float upwards. Faint sounds find their way through the cold embrace of the water – muffled screams of panic!

It's 1980. A devastating earthquake sends buildings crashing down. Yet from underneath the rubble, the cry of a newborn baby emerges. It is none other than Ciro di Marzio. From that day on, he will be known as “The Immortal”. Years later, Ciro survives even that fateful gunshot. What they say is true: no one and nothing can kill the Immortal.

From his past as an orphan to his present-day Baltic exile, from his first petty thefts to all-out gang warfare: Ciro confronts head-on whatever comes his way, in a world in which immortality is just another form of damnation.
