Production Company: Crowsnest Films
Set in 1922 against the wild landscape of Canada's Rocky Mountains and based on actual Prohibition-era incidents along the Alberta-British Columbia border, The Emperor is a dramatic restructuring of the events surrounding the tragic shooting death of Alberta Provincial Police Constable Steven Oldacres Lawson, and the subsequent trial, conviction, and execution of notorious Crowsnest Pass bootlegger Emilio "Emperor Pic" Picariello, and his housekeeper, Filumena "Florence" Losandro, for the policeman's murder. Like a vast mirror, the same events are seen through the eyes of both Emilio Picariello and Florence Losandro as they await their executions, forcing each of us to reflect on the very nature of reality and truth as we are confronted with the question: Who killed Constable Lawson?
