The film stereotypes women by looking at them as wives and mothers that are subordinate to men in all ways, and thus cannot be leaders. However, these women are rarely submissive and swiftly connive through the men to wield power in extraordinary ways. This is evident when Imma is dismissed from the gang because of being a woman (Grey, 2016). The fact that the film owned by Netflix in conjunction with RAI, a private television network, spells the difference between the film and many others through the themes evident in the film. This is because the film depicts Italy as a socially, politically, and economically disordered.

The airing of television series Gomorrah reflects, the aforementioned dawn of new era in Italian film industry. In as much as the television series brims with violence and beauty, it is certain that the characters in the film are not living beautiful lives as they are entangled in horrible relationships and living in horrible places (The Economist, 2016). Although the series embrace colorful and passionate characterization, it is against the backdrop of themes of power, corruption, and violence. In this television series, the film represents fact, but in a twisted way, such, that it may appear that the characters are enjoying, but in real sense, they are living dangerously, and this is manifested when teenage hooligans surrounded by drugs, and motorcycle chases depicting their enjoyment of this intoxicating life, are suddenly found dead. The sectors included in the series include the family, economic sector, and, health, political sector and environmental sector. Men are depicted as arrogant people while women are depicted as weak people and this is represented by Dion petro and lady Imma respectively.

The film industry, in Italy, began at around the 1890s, a period several years after the motion pictures had been invented in the 1880s. Since the first known Italian film in 1896, which recorded the visit of the Italian King and Queen in Florence, the film industry in Italy has experienced ups and downs with every period recording different achievements, actors, actresses and directors(Bertellini, 2004). The Italian regime’s stringent control over the regular and cultural production and consumption of film capitalized post-war Italian cinema with insightful political connotations. As a result, ordinary entertainment was known as suspect strategies, and this made post-war film directors feel that their work bore an intrinsic political charge. However, currently, a change has come knocking on Italy’s film industry door as filmmakers deviate from the usual population of movies with priests, saints and good policemen to a creation of edgier and darker stories. According to (web), the current times that feature a deromanticised Italy is the best time there has been to be a writer in more than 3 decades.
