VBS - MAFIA WEEK

On VBS this week we're exploring the garish, drug-addicted, crime-riddled, exciting world of Naples and Southern Italy. You may remember Campania as the Italian province where the local mafia (the Camorra) is storing the rest of Europe's toxic waste. Well, it is also the home of two equally important things,Neomelodica music, the Neapolitan answer to the Mexican narco-corrido or the American boy band; and Roberto Saviano, author of the world's best semi-fictional treatise on the Camorra and number one target on said mafia's to-kill list. So we shot special editions of Music World and VBS Meets for both of them. Click-a the dark letters to-a watch-a. And if all this isn't enough pasta-eaters for your eyeballs, go to the IFC center and watch Gomorrah, the film adaptation of Saviano's book.
