Meet Jimmy Hanlon. It's summer, 1987. Image is everything in his Jersey Shore hometown. Jimmy hasn't kept up. An overweight grandfather in his late forties, he's lost a cancerous larynx, and on top of that, A.I.D.S. has spiked fears of anyone with a questionable sexual history. In a search for companionship, he encounters a blur of bars, prejudice, familial and romantic love, misogamy, and lies. Throughout his redemptive summer, Jimmy's empathy reveals how individual compassion trumps social mores and why a heart's yearning owes no explanation.
