Synopsis

New-Age Renaissance Man tells the story of an inner city Italian boy growing up in a male-dominated household with Archie and Edith Bunker for parents and an eclectic supporting cast of neighborhood characters. Through a series of life experiences he comes to realize that the world around him is swiftly changing. Clinging to the ideas of the old ways, he must find common ground with his new surroundings. The sexual revolution of the 1960s changed his view of modern women, and while searching for wealth in Middle Class America he found a mixed bag of success and failure. A funny but instructive look at the life of an Italian baby boomer that mimics the ethnic experience of the time.
