“Mare Fuori is an exceptional example of television series based on the narration of contemporaneity and the values of public service,” declared Maria Pia Ammirati, director of Rai Fiction. “The public has rewarded the ability to convey the contradictory richness of the experiences of a group of very young people forced into the extreme conditions of a juvenile detention center.”
Roberto Sessa, producer of Picomedia, added: “Series 5, in the jargon of television series, is the classic reboot. The story gives us the opportunity to introduce several new characters who will become, together with the already established protagonists, the icons of the next seasons. We welcome six of them to the “Mare Fuori” family and wish them a great human and professional journey.”
