Synopsis

At the height of the Great Depression, ruthless financier Gregor Antonescu's business is dangerously close to crumbling.

In order to escape the wolves at his door, Gregor tracks down his estranged son Basil in the hopes of using his Greenwich Village apartment as a base to make a company-saving deal.

Can this reunion help them reconcile?

Or will this corrupt father use his only son as a pawn in one last power play?

A gripping story about family, success and what we're willing to sacrifice for both.
