The story of Oscar-winning director Giuseppe Tornatore’s feature debut “Il Camorrista” is a peculiar one. Shot in 1985, the film was expanded into a five-part series, starring Ben Gazzara as a notorious boss of the Neapolitan Camorra crime syndicate. However, the series was never aired. Now, after almost 40 years, “Il Camorrista” is making a triumphant return. Join us as, World Sales of the series, Minerva Pictures’ President and CEO Gianluca Curti talks about the amazing restoration of “Il Camorrista”, supervised in its totality by Giuseppe Tornatore that managed to create a new contemporaty classic.
