Inhalt:

The Port Jackson Paisans is a story about family, albeit an off-the-wall, dysfunctional, and slightly dangerous one. Narrated in a funeral home by octogenarian Franky DeRossi, it recounts how a bungling band of Italian-Americans stopped the Brooklyn mob from taking over their hometown in 1962. Gritty, poignant and woefully funny, it's the enduring story of family and friendship and the ties that bind. The paisans are well-meaning Goombahs who bet their paychecks on the ponies, concoct doomed stratagems that never make a nickel, run numbers, and live life to the fullest. The Port Jackson Paisans is funny, joyous and irreverent - a window into the lives of a close-knit, small town Italian-American family.
