Castel Volturno, 30 km from Naples. A “camorra” commando breaks into a tailor’s shop managed by African immigrants, wildly shooting a hundred bullets, killing six black men and grievously injuring one of them.

Yssouf, a young immigrant, has decided that night to break with his uncle Moses, who first persuaded him of coming in Italy promising a future as an honest artisan and then turned him into the cynical leader of the local millionaire coke-dealing scene.

Tangled up in this story there are an African guy, Germain, who casually was in the place of the massacre; his girlfriend, Asetu, who will sing that night a Miriam Makeba’s song; the prostitute Suad that Yssouf dreams of redeeming from her pimps.

Setted in the "most Africans of the European cities" (Roberto Saviano),

La Bas is a story blurring fiction andreality.
