This tape is a demo for a yet uncompleted feature documentary. The authors (a married couple) start the tape with the information that theirs is an unusual union, with the husband being from Medellin, Columbia and the wife from Chicago, both places famous for organized crime. This piece draws a comparison between Al Capone’s Chicago of the 1920s and Pablo Escobar’s Medellin of the 1980s. Historical information is provided and interesting use is made of old Hollywood gangster clips.
