Painting Drylock Over Painted Wall

Among the many things said by Saviano last, hotly contested, bet of Come away with me , there is the issue of the bunkers of criminals. Its true nonplaces ("These burrows, this unhappiness that architectural structure" as defined them as the author of Gomorra ) where the mafia expresses its leadership. Missing out on the physical presence of becoming ghosts, the invisible, without losing ability to influence and domination. Indeed, gaining in mystery and - in the eyes of the clan members - charm.

Net of the controversy over the League and the 'Ndrangheta that has dominated the post-show (as if the entire monologue was a accusations against Saviano Bossi and his - nothing further from the truth, since the Northern League is named only once), Roberto Saviano hear his description of the bunker, showing images and videos on unreleased to the public mainstream, I was very impressed. While passing the background images of the lairs of Platì of bunker built in the open country by exploiting an unexpected dry-stone wall, it seemed that the news would join the personal experience of those who for years has been forced to live in a bunker for different reasons and the opposite of that of the clan leaders.

The result was a very emotional story, with a strong moral content .

I've always wondered: how does a boss to live ten years, fifteen years with the regime of hard labor, the 41a. How does it do? How is it possible? Then I remember that before being arrested and end up in prison at hard labor, they are put in jail for only ten years earlier. In the bunker. These holes, this unhappiness that is almost architectural structure made of a waiver of a power only a headed pass.

Between the lines, one sees a strong emotional talking about bunker, people "forced" to renounce "in the light of the sun" to pursue their own sinister interests, is a young journalist who in turn is forced into the same , inhuman condition. The difference (abysmal) is in the grounds of deprivation: Roberto Saviano has been sentenced to death by the clan of the Camorra Casalesi from bosses that are probably locked in a bunker, to preserve their power by mob violence of the clash.

When you hide in this way you are willing just to maintain its market power to waive proipria existence, its soul. (...) People who have already ceased to live for thirty years, in the bunker

This part of the monologue Saviano is extraordinary for the human component to the characterization. It is not just news, information based on judicial and journalistic investigations: there is a vital additive in his words. Saviano, speaking of the bunker of criminals, he touched the ball staff. For him, the bunker is actually from 2008. Of course, it is not communicating with passages from pizza ovens, or dens of mice such as those shown during the broadcast, but the condition is similar. "I've always wondered: how does a boss to live ten years, fifteen years with the regime of hard labor, the 41a. How does it do? How possible? "

The subtext of the question seems to be:

like you spontaneously decide to give up life in the light of the sun, to lock yourself in a narrowly prison of loneliness?

a question heavy, it becomes even more weight if it is to lift a man to that condition is so constrained, but not his will . Saviano knows the bunker, known as its enormous restrictions may caged existence and will do anything to not having to live anymore. riassaggiare to life as it was before.

But it can not, he is not allowed . And the ban is that bunker by men who choose it and embrace it as a "culmination" of a career, "light" in the mafia.

There is no freedom if there is mafia : we know this all along. But since Monday we have a new trial.
