Title from distributor's description.
Summary:On January 16, 1920, the 18th Amendment to the Constitution goes into effect, making it illegal to manufacture, transport, or sell intoxicating liquor. As millions of law-abiding Americans become lawbreakers overnight, enforcement of the new law is almost impossible. A lawyer in Cincinnati and a policeman in Seattle jettison their careers for the far more profitable trade of bootlegging. Across the country, in countless backyards, chicken coops, and basements, Americans brew their own brands of moonshine, beer, and wine. The Prohibitionists have their law and the people have their alcohol, and, for a time, it seems everybody is happy. But rampant corruption threatens to corrode the entire judicial system, from the local policemen on the beat to the highest echelons of power in the capital.
Target Audience:6 & up.
Other form:Originally produced: Public Broadcasting Service (U.S.), 2011
