Despite dividing opinions, the reviewer recommends watching this heartfelt and complex crime drama. Watch ENEA to dive into a raw, intense portrait of family and power in modern Rome.

The ferocity of this performance is unfathomable. Did you want the underground? HERE IT IS! In this record, there are 'bastard' brothers who accept their personal not quite 'normal' hyperboles and throw away the mask of a cowardly hope of sneaking away from the miserable being we are.
