Black Souls (Italian: Anime nere) is a 2014 Italian-French crime drama film directed by Francesco Munzi. It was nominated for the Golden Lion at the 71st Venice International Film Festival.[1][2] It was also selected to be screened in the Contemporary World Cinema section at the 2014 Toronto International Film Festival.[3]

Plot

Luigi is a member of the Calabrian 'Ndrangheta and an international drug dealer, linked to powerful South American crime groups. His elder brother Rocco lives in Milan with his wife Valeria and their daughter. He does not approve of his younger brother's lifestyle and is in construction business. Luciano, the eldest of the three brothers, has remained in Calabria tending his goats in the mountains, with the illusory goal of remaining uninvolved with his brothers' illegal businesses.

Leo, the young and rancorous son of Luciano, in response to an insult shoots up the exterior of a bar protected by a rival clan of 'Ndrangheta, who had already been offended by Luigi's refusal to trade with them. Their history goes deep, however; Luigi hates them because their boss killed his father many years before.

The rival clan demands that Luigi supply them with drugs, but this only motivates Luigi to return to his hometown to take them on, initially by strengthening his links with other families. However, before he is able to carry out his plans Luigi is summarily killed in the street. Rocco, arriving from Milan, is determined to take revenge but, before acting, he wants to know if his family is isolated or if it can count on the support of the other crime families. Leo, on the other hand, having had a strong attachment to his deceased uncle Luigi, feels that his duty is to solve things alone. He plans to kill the enemy boss, but is betrayed by his accomplice and killed. This upsets everyone involved, particularly his father Luciano who, after burning photos of his own father who died years before in an ambush by the rival clan, returns home, kills his younger brother Rocco, and seems as if he contemplates a suicide which would complete the extermination of all the men of his family and thus the lineage of violence.
