Description: | Select Guide Rating Omertà, the Sicilian code of silence, has been the cornerstone of the Mafia's sense of honour for centuries. But this time silence spreads like a contagion: the silence of rival gangs, the silence of crooked bankers, even the silence of the courts. Omertà, the Sicilian code of silence, has been the cornerstone of the Mafia''s sense of honour for centuries. Born in the Sicilian hills, omertà carried the Mafia through a hundred years of change, but now at the century''s end it is becoming a relic from a bygone age. Honour may be silent - but money talks. |
