 In this coming-of-age comedy set in 1965, Michael Dunn is a recently orphaned Boston teenager who is sent with his younger sister to live with their grandparents in Brooklyn. Once there, he befriends his misfit Catholic school classmates and a reluctant young monk, rebelling and discovering who they are, and often with hilarious results. Michael also falls for Dani, the local hangout owner s tough-as-nails daughter. But the repressive monks of St. Basil s will stop at nothing to prove that their ways are the right ways and their word is law...even if it means destroying their relationship.
