The story

David Rosen (Strasberg) and his wife Becky (Gordon) are approaching their 50th wedding anniversary in Coney Island, where they have spent most of their married life. But their beloved once-safe neighborhood begins to fall victim to urban blight and crime with house robberies commonplace and the boardwalk rendered unsafe by gangs. A gang leader named Strut demands payment from local merchants for "protection" and uses violent methods to achieve his objectives.
