Contraband (1980 film)

Contraband (Italian: Luca il contrabbandiere, lit. 'Luca the smuggler') is a 1980 poliziotteschi film directed by Lucio Fulci.

The film is set in Naples, where Luca Di Angelo (Fabio Testi) and his brother Michele use speedboats to smuggle cigarettes, and find themselves between two contraband bosses after they lose a load of cigarettes. The film's story was changed to include additional scenes of violence to better pace the plot. On the second week of a ten-week shooting schedule, the production exhausted its budget and received funding from real life smugglers in Naples. The smugglers also made changes to the plot and title of the film.
