In 1950, Alfie Bagliato's family is forced to flee their small town due to a brutal racist attack. Seeking a new beginning, they arrive in New York City, where Alfie, at sixteen, dreams of escaping his Italian American enclave through a career in music and a romance with his distant cousin, Adeline. However, disappointment and frustration lead Alfie down a tumultuous path. He joins the military to follow Adeline to San Francisco, and then becomes a New York City cop, where his clash with protestors during the 1968 Columbia University student uprising nearly costs him his life. This traumatic experience forces Alfie to confront his inherited bigotry and fear. He grapples with his lingering love for Adeline and the need to find a new life.
Alfie's journey is a testament to the resilience of the human spirit and the power of self-discovery. Despite the challenges he faces, he never loses sight of his dreams and his desire for a better life. Through his struggles, Alfie learns to confront his past and embrace diversity, ultimately finding peace and fulfillment in a new world.
