More in ‘Antonin Kratochvil’

In 2006, Douglas Century traveled to Israel with photographer Antonin Kratochvil, to report on the country’s shifting organized crime scene. Guided by a former mafia soldier named Ilan, they were shown Tel Aviv’s alleyways and sidestreets, its seedy clubs and the back rooms—all the often-invisible places where the mob goes about its business. The photos here are snapshots from their visit to Israel’s underworld.
