THIS SIX EPISODE SERIES
is
set in Southern Italy, two years after the Unification of Italy: a
woman, forced to escape from her village, joins a particular group of
brigands and she will become one of the most ruthless and strategic
leaders. But she is not the only one to choose this life and soon comes
into contact with other women like her. In order to recover the gold of
the South and restore hope to the peasants, the various bands of
brigands will have no choice but to unite against the common enemy.
Brigands against State, but also brigands against brigands, in a
struggle where one must be willing to sacrifice even one's humanity to
overcome the oppressors. Dense forests, immense glades and desolate
landscapes create a precise image system in which the characters come
into intimate contact with the wilderness, becoming an integral part of
it. Confined to the edges of civilization and forced to live like beasts
to survive in hostile places, this environment changes them forever and
brings out their darker, more primitive side. A little bit Robin Hood, a
little bit Pirates, the bandits protagonists acquire wealth and power
to replace the State. A violent criminality is born where the only
option to survive is to become an unscrupulous outlaw.
