<p><strong>A family&rsquo;s legacy is forever changed in this true story of ransom notes, stowaways, and mobsters.</strong></p>

<p>Paris, 1929. Gaetano &ldquo;Guy&rdquo; DeSantis is an Italian emigrant with a good life: a stable construction job, a comfortable place to live, and a blossoming relationship with a young waitress, Marie. But Guy dreams of making a future in America, alongside his cousin Frank who immigrated a few years earlier.</p>

<p>So when a mysterious stranger shows up at Guy&rsquo;s door saying that Frank has paid for a boat ride across the Atlantic, how could Guy refuse? But there&rsquo;s a catch&mdash;he must leave immediately, with no bags and no goodbyes.</p>
