Being yourself in a sea of mindless cretins is the hardest battle any kid could face. September 1982. In a working class neighborhood in Queens, New York, 16 year old Nico Razza is a perpetual outcast, often victim to the taunts of his peers, classmates, and neighborhood bullies. Steeped in Punk Rock culture, he is not only rebelling against society, authority, and his peers, but also his recently widowed father, who struggles to keep his family together in the dawn of the Reagan era. Angst ridden punk rockers; Van Halen t-shirt wearing Camaro driving bullies and their brain dead foot soldiers; Lower East Side squatters; Alphabet City junkies; Hardcore bands and the infamous A7 club; Reagan's promise of a 'Morning in America' and those left behind who still wanted to believe it; working class angst; high school confidential; when these worlds collide over the course of ten days, the lives of everyone involved will be changed forever.
