More Details

Summary:

Following World War II, urban planners constructed a series of public parks throughout New York City. This is a story about a generation of boys, sons of working-class families, who grew up in one of these parks during the 1960's - a time of sex, drugs, the Vietnam War, free love, and rock n' roll. A story of pain and joy, success and loss, struggles and triumph. A story of the divergent paths taken by these boys through adulthood during a turbulent time in our nations history.
