Overview
In 1973, it seemed like the end of the Mashantucket Pequot tribe in Ledyard, CT. But over the next 3 decades, the reservation grew to more than 2,000 acres & became home to Foxwoods, the largest casino in the world, grossing more than $1 billion per year. The Pequots are reborn, immensely wealthy, & in possession of an enormous amount of political influence. Two men resurrected the Pequots & battled the local townspeople & the state gov't. for the right to gamble on their land. A former mob prosecutor brings Malaysian financiers to the table. Reveals the mysterious roots of today's Pequot tribe, the racial tension that divides them, & the power struggle over who will control the tribe's purse strings.
