The future is set for Tony and Michael - owning a neighborhood bar and making deals in the mean streets of New York City's Little Italy. For Charlie, the future is less clearly defined. A small-time hood, he works for his uncle, making collections and reclaiming bad debts. In love with a woman of whom his uncle disapproves and a friend of her disturbed cousin, Johnny Boy, a near psychotic whose trouble-making threatens them all - Charlie just cannot reconcile opposing values. A failed attempt to escape moves them all a step closer to a bitter, almost preordained future.
