When the godson of San Francisco's crime lord asks permission to leave "the business," Don Antonio agrees, but reluctantly. Such behavior by either one is a violation of the code, and a bloody mob war breaks out. It is only through the strong support of his family connections in Sicily that Don Antonio is able to survive the mêlée and come out on top. Aghast at the situation he has caused, the godson becomes his leader's "consigliere," or Counselor at Crime.

🎬 MovieFinder's Take

The film constructs its narrative on the classic conflict between personal desire and duty to the family, relying on genre conventions to explore the internal hierarchy and unwritten laws of the criminal underworld. It is a drama where tension simmers in whispered conversations rather than explosive action.

What lingers after the credits is the chilling understanding of a system where escape is an illusion, and the price of survival is eternal complicity. — MovieFinder Editorial

Director: Alberto De Martino
