2020 Film Festival
film synopsis
For generations, the Gamache fathers and sons have been dutiful tailors to the Paternos, a criminal organization shaped by a carefully constructed morality that binds its members to uncompromising rules. But their connection to one another transcends clothes when Vincent “Vince” Gamache (Marc-André Grondin) becomes a brutal enforcer for the Paternos. Taking grand leaps to impress the Paterno godfather, Vince winds up sparking the fuse that ignites an all-out war. After a horrific act of violence breaks the bonds of this organized crime union and their close-knit tailors, both clans are left at risk of being brought down by their internecine betrayals. Based on the unbelievable book inspired by true events, this riveting 1990s-set mobster epic from director Daniel Grou is a compelling examination of a Canadian crime empire — and two majorly dysfunctional families — built on three generations of avarice, violence and corruption.
