SOON TO BE A MAJOR MOTION PICTURE STARRING BENICIO DEL TORO,
PRODUCED BY LEONARDO DICAPRIO. Cuba, 1961. A failed invasion at The
Bay of Pigs results in Fidel Castro tightening his hold over Cuba.
Jose Miguel Battle Sr., a former cop and member of the
counter-revolutionary group intent on overthrowing him, is
captured. Miami, 1962. Jose Miguel Battle Sr. travels to the USA,
chased from the island by revolution, and is renamed The Godfather.
A 2,500 strong Cuban-American criminal alliance is established.
Known on both sides of the law as 'The Corporation', its powerful
members were fellow outcasts and enemies of Castro. A hero to many
Cuban-Americans, The Godfather created a unit of trusted men who
fought alongside him to reclaim their nation from the Marxist
dictator. Gaining money, power and inluence by running gambling
rackets, money- laundering, drug tra?cking and murder, The
Corporation never gave up the dream of killing Castro and
reclaiming their homeland. This explosive biography reveals how an
entire generation of political exiles, refugees, racketeers,
corrupt cops, hitmen (and their wives and girlfriends) became
caught up in this violent desire, and built a criminal empire
surviving over 40 years. An epic tale of gangsters, drugs and
violence, learn how The Corporation grew into one of the USA's most
sordid and deadly organisations.
