Italian dad Tony Poliziano is a mess. He'd got his father's blood in him but his mother's soul. As brutal as he is tender, he's a man divided against himself. How then is he to react upon learning that his ten-year-old son has been targeted as "gay" at school? Immediately Tony is butting heads with the school's authorities, a war soon escalating onto L.A.'s gangland streets. Things only worsen after that in this tale of husband versus wife, father against son, and man fiercely at odds with his fellow man. All very macho don't you know, but beneath it all a most strange and maddened sense of homoeroticism haunting the reins, the destination unspeakable.
