The Sicilian Connection (Italian: Afyon oppio, French: Action héroïne, also known as The Opium Connection and La filière) is a 1972 Italian-French crime-thriller film directed by Ferdinando Baldi.[1][2]

Plot

[edit]

The Italian-American Joseph Coppola wants to start trafficking drugs from Turkey to the United States and calls for the support of the Sicilian Mafia, who would protect him from the Marseilles Clan. In the U.S., however, he appears to forget the chords. Greed or double play?
