This short documentary follows the Fat Femme Mafia, their fat co-conspirators and allies in the days leading up to their first and highly anticipated event. Through interviews, asides, and performances, "Rubb My Chubb" lays the groundwork for these fierce fatties to continue to make their politics known to the rest of the world. Since then, FFM have graced the cover of Xtra! Magazine, MTV, The Toronto Star, and many Pride performance stages, and the appetite for these luscious ladies continues to grow and grow.
Pendant longtemps, le rôle des femmes au sein des mafias a été négligé. Silencieuses et discrètes, souvent réduites au statut de victime, on les croyait sous l emprise des hommes, reléguées aux tâches domestiques. Elles ont longtemps constitué une sorte de vitrine respectable pour les mafieux. En public, elles se montrent parfaites : elles vont à l Église, assistent aux cérémonies publiques, sont extrêmement polies et soumises. Il est alors difficile d imaginer des personnes aussi respectables mariées à des tueurs sanguinaires. Mais qui sont réellement ces femmes qui accompagnent leurs maris et leurs fils dans des vies de crimes et de prison ? Alors, marraines ou madones ? Quoi qu'il en soit, toutes ont des destins romanesques mais tragiques.

This is the only live performance of Mafia Track Suit that was recorded live, low-budget, and multi-cam style. We shared the night with our friends, The Aurora Observatory.

It also showcases some early versions of songs that wound up on the last release we were fortunate enough to record in Jeremy's basement. So here we are...warts and all. All that matters in this case is passion and the enjoyment of creating music with friends. Thanks for coming to the shows.

This absorbing documentary charts the history of one of the most fascinating subcultures in America: the New York mob. Discover how the crime syndicate pulled its roots from Italy, planted them right in the heart of the Big Apple and flourished during the not-so-dry run of the Prohibition. Although in-fighting and scrutiny from the government have squeezed out the Mafia's power and glamour, it still maintains its place in urban history.
La mafia ne cesse de séduire nos imaginaires. Son aura de mystère, ses parrains élégants et leur sens de l'honneur, cette violence gratuite mêlée à un paternalisme bienveillant. En somme : des clichés, du romanesque. Voilà donc l'occasion de se plonger dans son histoire, de découvrir ses mythes fondateurs, de comprendre les rapports complexes qu'elle tisse avec la société civile et l'Eglise catholique. C'est scolaire (un jeu de questions-réponses artificiel) et l'ambition d'exhaustivité de ce documentaire rend sa lecture pénible mais l'analyse étant aussi fouillée que précise, on est preneur.
