Milan, Italy, 1967. Santo Russo, a boy of Calabrian origin, arrives north with his parents and younger brother to find better living conditions. Due to an absurd misunderstanding and his father's contempt, Santo ends up in prison, where he gets a “true education.” In 1978, he and his friends Slim and Mario embark on a 15-year criminal career, a successful and ruthless spiral of robberies, kidnappings, murders and heroin smuggling.
The Ruthless is an Italian crime drama following Santo Russo's rise through Milan's underworld from 1967 to the early 1980s. Released in April 2019, the film traces how a young Calabrian immigrant becomes a ruthless criminal kingpin through a 15-year spree of robberies, kidnappings, and drug trafficking alongside his partners Slim and Mario.
