Capone

Al Capone, once a notorious gangster, is living out his final years in his Florida mansion after a decade in prison. Suffering from dementia and plagued by hallucinations, he reminisces about his violent past while his family tries to cope with his declining health and the ever-present threat of federal agents investigating his hidden fortune.
