Return of the Godfathers
The Mafia is the topic as Leo Sisti tells the story of the relationship between the Sicilian and U.S. branches of Cosa Nostra. Following a war won by the "Corleonesi" side, the business relationship between the two had come to a halt. Two Inzerillos brothers (Francisco and Rosario), lost a power struggle and were forced to leave their native Sicily in the early 1980s, "exiled" to the U.S. Almost 20 years later, they returned to Sicily to avenge their murdered family members, attempt to regain power and try to resume the old business relationship with the American mob.
