The making of Minnesota's most notorious mobster, Kid Cann.
Isidore Blumenfeld was a first generation Romanian-Jewish immigrant who capitalized on prohibition and other organized criminal activities, which lead to him being known as "Kid Cann" - the most notorious mobster in Minnesota's history. Our story takes place in 1924 and will show a much younger and naive Isidore, as he's introduced to the fighting morals of bootlegging and owning a speakeasy in Minneapolis.
PROOF OF CONCEPT SHORT FILM for a limited series.
The Combination will explore 1924 Minneapolis during the heart of prohibition. Kid and his brothers own a speakeasy thanks to their booming bootlegging profits. While enjoying an evening at their establishment, something happens which changes Isidore from the 25 year old bootlegging bruiser into a full on mob boss, willing to do whatever it takes to protect his neighborhood, family and business - even if that means spilling blood.
While "The Combination" will be unique in the mobster genre by focussing on the Jewish community and the Anti-Semitism of the era, the overall piece can be appreciated by all audiences. Our goal is to introduce audiences to the rich history of Minnesota and highlight how it helped shape current times.
