MEAT PIES AND MORTADELLA

by Valentino Musico

The 1970s. Brickwood. Sydney's Greater West. "Get some Aussie in yer or go home!"? bawl the footy boys, Field Goal and Mad Dog. Then they encourage the recalcitrant Braccio di Ferro di Calabria to accept their offer by kicking his head in. From his hospital bed, Braccio commands his only child, Fantastica, to exact revenge. Can a poor immigrant girl on her lonesome make salami out of the footy boys? LOOKING FOR ALIBRANDI meets ROMPER STOMPER.
