Synopsis "Odds Into Ends"

This is the heartwarming story of Polish immigrants who band together in their closeknit Philadelphia neighborhood to navigate the most direchallenges of the early twentieth century. Prohibition in the tumultuous twenties prompts them to organize an underground network for the illegal production of alcohol, which provides them financial stability. "Alki-cookers" put meat on the table and maintains the roofs over their heads, as they develop strategies to outsmart the law. When the Volstead Act is repealed, the dark days of the depression re-ignite the struggle for survival they faced when they first chose to emigrate to America for a better quality of life. Their unwavering persistence and determination enable them to grapple with the odds against them, with the conviction that the ends justify the means. One way or another, they manage to put bread on the table and keep their familes' hopes alive.
