Plot
Mick (Jeremy Piven) is a local success story and Philadelphia real estate developer. He returns to his blue-collar hometown, fictional "Darby Heights"(based on Upper Darby, a suburb of West Philadelphia), for a funeral and is obligated to stay to ensure his parents’ struggling family business gets back on course.
In the meantime, he begins to grow closer to his childhood crush, Ali (Taryn Manning) whilst enduring constant ridicule from his old hometown crew. As Mick begins to reconnect with the neighborhood, he finds himself at a crossroads when forced to either raze or resurrect the family bar.
