Description:
For a decade, they raced across back roads and sailed the oceans, smuggling a vital liquid to a country that couldn't satisfy its desire for alcohol through laws alone. Prohibition didn't stop Americans from drinking; it just changed where they got their liquor – from fancy clubs to secret bars and remote shacks. RUMRUNNERS, MOONSHINERS AND BOOTLEGGERS offers an honest look at this wild era, featuring stories from former smugglers about their encounters with the Coast Guard. The film explores how the failed Prohibition effort unexpectedly led to the creation of NASCAR. Historians offer context, while retired law enforcement officials and prosecutors share their experiences trying – and failing – to enforce a law America rejected. The film includes incredible stories, rare footage, and a collection of captivating photographs.
