Suburra is a gripping Italian crime drama that explores the dark underbelly of Rome's criminal underworld. The movie follows a local gangster, Samurai, who has a vision to transform the coast of Ostia into a Las Vegas-like city, with the support of the local mafia families and the Vatican Bank. However, the project is threatened by a brutal turf war between rival gangs, and Samurai must navigate the treacherous landscape to protect his interests. Meanwhile, Filippo Malgradi, an Italian MP, is involved in a bill to change the classification of certain administrative areas, which would allow the real estate project to move forward. He has close ties to Samurai and the Vatican Bank, but his plans are complicated when a prostitute dies in his hotel room, and he is blackmailed by a local crime boss.

However, Manfredi Anacleti, the patriarch of another crime family, wants his share in the business and blackmails Sebastiano into handing over Sabrina.
