Ultras is a gripping Italian film directed by Francesco Lettieri, set in Naples. The story focuses on Sandro, the leader of a group of ultras called the Apache, who has spent his entire life surrounded by violence, clashes, and unwavering values at the stadium. However, a restraining order now prevents Sandro from approaching the curve, causing his values to falter. For the first time, he longs for a normal life, possibly even a relationship and family.

During this time, Sandro meets Terry, a fearless and beautiful woman who captivates him. Meanwhile, Angelo, a sixteen-year-old boy, looks up to Sandro and considers the Apache as his family. He sees Sandro as a mentor figure, replacing his deceased brother who died during a trip's clashes.
