In prohibition era
Chicago, the ambitious criminal Al Capone moves in to exploit an
immense bootleg market for his own profit. Together with his
second, the cold-bloodedly practical Frank Nitti, Capone manages
to unite the various local crime lords under his leadership and
create an incredibly powerful crime syndicate. Through the use
of alluring bribery to corrupt the local authorities for his
purposes and brutal violence to cow or eliminate the more
principled, it seems that Al Capone is above the law. However,
the gang makes the critical mistake of irritating the US
President one night, and the decision is made to bring Capone to
justice. To that end, US Treasury agent Eliot Ness is assigned
the task. Ness, who is utterly incensed by the gang violence and
corruption that Capone embodies, soon learns that he cannot
depend on the local police in this crusade with their rife
corruption. Instead, he assembles an elite team of agents
handpicked for their skills and especially their refusal to be
bought or intimidated by Capone's gang which soon gets dubbed
"The Untouchables." As this team strives to investigate and
disrupt Al Capone's empire, the resulting conflict escalates
into a war that will become which will become more personal,
frustrating and destructive than either side can anticipate.
