The Tailor

Pipo Mirici is a blue-eyed Italian boy from Basilicata, a sun-drenched village in the south of Italy who dreams of life in America. Pipo and his father (and his father before him), were born with the skill of tailoring in their hands. Sadly, old ways are being replaced by fast-food and made-in-China suits and the family business is in jeopardy of closing forever. When Pipo, now age 22, receives a postcard from his cousin Antonio Pipo's dream is realized and he takes a job working as an illegal in a Beverly Hills tailoring shop where he meets and falls in love with Tiffany, a Russian/blonde dream girl who belongs to Frank Tucci, a corrupt real estate magnate and Pipo's important tailoring client. Frank has dreams too and is running to be the next U.S. Senator and will stop at nothing to get elected. After his campaign manager convinces him to dump Tiffany, she blackmails him and Frank takes out a contract on her which sets off Pipo robbing a bank; Pipo impersonating a Nepalese blonde mobster and Pipo's collaboration with the LAPD, who's been trying to nail Frank and his brother Salvatore for years. Armed with only his simple ways (and surprising tailoring skills), Pipo single-handily takes on Frank's international crime family to save his father, the village and the woman he loves.
