The Piranhas

In Naples, a new kind of gang rules the streets: the Paranze, the Children's Gangs, groups of teenage boys who divide their time between social media and playing video games, while also patrolling the streets armed with pistols and AK-47s, terrorizing local residents to mark out the territories of their Mafia bosses. The Piranhas tells the story of the rise of one such gang and its leader, Nicolas - known to his friends and enemies as the Maharajah. However, Nicolas's ambitions reach far beyond doing other men's bidding; he wants to be the one giving orders, calling the shots, and ruling the city. The violence he is accustomed to wielding and witnessing soon spirals out of his control.
