There is an Old Italian saying in Italy: “L’acqua corre ma il sangue Italiano addensa.” Water runs, but Italian blood thickens. A child prodigy at five years old is forced to pick coal for his immigrant family from the railroad tracks to heat their humble home. He meets the poor, black coalpicker, Miss Beulah; she was his Mamma’s emergency mid-wife who had breathed life into the “blue baby.” Nurtured by his beloved Mamma, and the bible-toting Miss Beulah, he asks why he does not have a Nonno. She tells the teen that her Papa’s business partner with the help of the sinister, greedy underworld mobsters, La Mano Nera, the Black Hand, poisoned his Nonno to steal his real estate holding in the Bronx. Angered by the poverty brought to la familia, obsessed, he leads a double life, marries the NY Don’s daughter, and begins a clandestine, methodical drive to seek revenge, swears on his Nonno’s grave a personal vendetta. Stolen Blood! Il vendettas--Italian Style.
