SYNOPSIS
_______________________________________________________________

In the early 1980’s, an all-out war rages between Sicilian mafia bosses over the heroin trade. Tommaso Buscetta, a made man, flees to hide out in Brazil. Back home, scores are being settled and Buscetta watches from afar as his sons and brother are killed in Palermo, knowing he may be next. Arrested and extradited to Italy by the Brazilian police, Buscetta makes a decision that will change everything for the Mafia: he decides to meet with Judge Giovanni Falcone and betray the eternal vow he made to the Cosa Nostra, and talk.

Excellent movie tells the story of the member of the Costa Nostra, a crime organization in Sicily, that turned informant which resulted in the arrest and conviction of Toto Rhinna and many others. Toto Rhinna was from Corleone the city in Sicily where, Vito Corleone, the central figure in the Godfather movies was born. I purchased the Italian version which displayed excellent video and audio with English subtitles.
