The story follows Sasà, a 13-year-old boy living in the suburbs of Naples. He spends his days with friends, listening to rap music and dreaming of becoming a famous rapper to provide a better life for his young mother, Rusè. Their bond is close, but it's tested by jealousy, poverty, and harsh circumstances. When Sasà meets legendary Neapolitan rapper Yodi, his dream seems within reach. However, the harsh realities of the music industry and street life force him into drug trafficking to support his mother.
