Your Life at Every Rank in the Mafia (It Only Gets Worse)

What happens when you join the Mafia at just 17 years old and climb your way to becoming the most powerful crime boss in New York? 🕴️💰 Every promotion brings more money, more power, and a much greater chance of losing everything. In this animated Mafia POV documentary, you experience YOUR LIFE at EVERY RANK in the American Mafia — from a powerless street associate to a feared Mafia Boss. Your journey begins in 1975 Brooklyn, where one mysterious delivery pulls you into the dangerous world of organized crime. At first, you're just an errand boy. But as you prove your loyalty, earn respect, and rise through the Mafia hierarchy, you discover the terrifying truth about life inside the Five Families. You'll experience what it takes to become a Made Man, command your own crew as a Caporegime, advise powerful mob bosses as a Consigliere, and eventually take control as the Don. But here's the catch: the higher you climb, the harder it becomes to survive. Discover the secrets behind the American Mafia's power structure, the code of silence known as Omertà, the rise of legendary mobsters like John Gotti and Sammy "The Bull" Gravano, and how FBI investigations and RICO prosecutions brought powerful Mafia leaders down. From the streets of Brooklyn to the top of New York's organized crime empire, this is what your life inside the Mafia could look like.
