A timeless hymn for the city of Pittsburgh, Benevolent Change follows Jack Angeletti, a self taught intellectual who struggles with his only daughter, Stephanie's college explorations. Now a part-time mechanic, Jack remains wary of formal education, and is even more sensitive to Stephanie, a former troubled drug addict youth and her post high school life. As she branches out at college with a sense of freedom, Jack finds himself investigating her college life by impersonating a college professor on campus and lecturing to students who fall in love with him. Covering a time period of roughly a semester of college, or a football season, the story gracefully portrays a daughter's transformation to adulthood, and a father's sincere acceptance of humbly learning and living at age sixty.
