The second and final season of Romanzo Criminale continues the rise and fall of the Banda della Magliana, as their grip on Rome tightens and begins to fracture. Inspired by real events, the series follows a group of ambitious criminals navigating the violent underworld of the late 1970s and early 1980s, where organized crime intersects with political unrest and shadowy institutions.

Season 2 deepens its political backdrop, reflecting Italy’s Years of Lead, with storylines touching on terrorism, secret services and the blurred lines between state and crime. The result is a tense crime saga grounded in history, driven by character conflict and an atmosphere of instability that shapes every decision.
