Born to Italian immigrants, A.P. Giannini’s goal was to serve “the little people.” At the turn of the 20th century, Giannini revolutionized banking for the poor working immigrant class. Starting by giving loans with a simple handshake, his institution would transform into America’s largest bank, now known as Bank of America. Chronicling the life story of an ordinary man doing extraordinary things, this film takes viewers through the history of Hollywood, the Great Depression, two World Wars, and A.P.’s incredible influence on all of the above.
