Mafia & Red Tomatoes

Growing tomatoes may seem like a safe activity, but not when it is conducted on a land confiscated by the State to mafia bosses. A group of amateur farmers start working the land boycotted by unseen powers that try to hamper their activity. Filippo has been dealing with anti-Mafia activities in the south of Italy for years, but has done so from his office chair far removed in the north. When a cooperative from Puglia is given a small farm that was confiscated from ruthless Mafia boss Nicola Sansone, they can't manage to get going on account of ongoing mafia boycotts, and Filippo is reluctantly forced to get actively involved on the ground. Fearful, anxious and hopelessly bureaucratic, he won't have an easy time. But he is inspired thanks to the courage and passion of the mismatched members of this cooperative, lead by Sansone's former farmer Cosimo and by the beautiful and determined Rossana, both with a dark past to redeem. However, along with their first organic tomatoes, an unwelcome visitor will reappear in Sansone, the Mafioso and his presence threatens to destroy everything. (Cinemax)
