Après 15 ans d’absence, Dito retrouve le Queens, le quartier le plus violent de New York, pour faire face à son père, gravement malade. C’est dans ces rues où il a grandi, qu’il va retrouver ses anciens camarades - tout du moins ceux qui ne sont pas en prison ou morts assassinés - et son ancien amour d’enfance, Laurie. Dito va tenter de comprendre les événements tragiques survenus pendant l’été 1986 qui ont provoqué son départ précipité. (texte officiel du distributeur)

This film is a significantly emotional, plotless film that is difficult to describe for this reason. It is a film about searching for one's roots and attempting to map out one's childhood and adolescence. As a story, it is essentially about nothing, and the adventures of a group of teenagers from a poor suburb of an American metropolis are completely forgotten in a few days. However, the nostalgic melancholic mood will resonate with me for a long time. It is definitely not a bad film and considering how inexperienced the director was, I consider it more than successful. However, considering the above, it has its limits, for which I can give no more than three stars. Dito Montiel made a film where the combination of music, images, and performances rarely works well. Overall impression: 65%. ()
