SYNOPSIS:

Spanning decades from the late 1800s to present day, CAB tells the epic story of a poor Italian immigrant family, the Scalamarris, as they settle outside NYC and begin to amass wealth, only to be squeezed by the mafia, and ultimately slaughtered at the hands of Bugsy Siegel. The sole male surviving relative, Vincent Scala, barely escapes, seeking refuge by joining the military. Tormented by his family’s brutal slaying and driven by a reckless death wish, Vincent’s actions receive decorations as a war hero. Fast forward to the 1990’s the great grandsons of the Scalamarris, Chris, Tony and Sal, better known as the Columbus Avenue Boys, find themselves entrenched in organized crime, until coming face-to-face with their family’s horrific past. With the help of the FBI’s most eager agent, Dominique Tejata, Chris enacts a master plan to escape the mob’s clutches before it’s too late. Will the Columbus Avenue Boys continue the vicious crime cycle only to experience the same horrific fate of their forefathers? Or will their grandfather, Vincent “Pops” Scala, the sole surviving male relative from the massacre, who bridges the past with the present, be able to avenge the Scalamarri name and free his family from the deathly grip of the mob?
