Synopsis
Christian lives in a "city-palace" where he earns his living doing dirty work for LINO, the criminal boss of neighborhood. When stigmata appear on his hands, Christian finds physically impossible to carry out his work, but also discovers he has gained mysterious healing powers to fight against Lino. But MATTEO, a mysterious Vatican postulator in search of signs and confirmations, is tracking him down bringing too close to a truth that could upset his life and that of the whole world.

Note from the artistic direction
Stefano Lodovichi, awarded at CANNESERIES Season 01 for Il Cacciatore, comes back with a mystical thriller. The world of Roman mafia becomes a stage for supernatural events, where mystery, violence and biting humor call the shots. Edoardo Pesce, revealed by Dogman, is at the top of his art.
