Lenny, a 14-year-old boy residing in the Bronx during the summer of 1955, is captivated by the idea of sex, a typical curiosity for a teenager. However, he finds himself too young and intimidated to actually engage in it, so he decides to spend his summer vacation trying to witness others in an “act of love.” Unfortunately, this ambition turns out to be more challenging than he anticipated. When caught in the midst of spying by his mother, Sylvia, and stepfather, they promptly send him off to his Aunt Norma and Uncle Phil’s home in “the country,” which is ironically situated in Queens.
