In the 1930s, when crime was taking over the United States, a devoted and manipulative mother decides that her family must be part of the criminal story. Kate Barker, an unyielding fierce matriarch, has raised her four children in an environment where respect is earned with guns and bullets. When her sons, determined to carve out a place in the world of crime, start robbing banks and clashing with the law, Kate not only approves of their actions but also becomes the mastermind behind their growing criminal empire.
The Barker family becomes a true “factory of criminals.” Especially after the FBI takes an interest and begins to track them. Violence and chaos within the family escalate, but Kate remains steadfast in her role as mother, praising their exploits and offering a romantic justification for their life outside the law. As tensions rise and the pressure from authorities becomes unbearable, the family faces a fateful decision: continue their criminal life or consider a future that could be very different.
With a tense atmosphere and a focus on family dysfunction, this story is a chilling exploration of how love and loyalty can lead to destruction. In the end, the legacy of the Barker family will become legend, but not without a devastating cost.
