Paul Graff (Banks Repeta) is a teenage boy in 1980 whose middle class Jewish family is struggling with recession and angst, with his mother Esther (Anne Hathaway) and father Irving (Jeremy Strong) trying to keep body and soul together, with help from Aaron (Anthony Hopkins), Paul’s grandfather and family patriarch. He befriends a poverty-stricken African American named Johnny (Jaylin Webb), who is a co-conspirator in some bad boy antics. When Paul’s parents sends him to private school because of his behavior, its benefactor is none other than Fred Trump, father of Donald. As the 1980 election year rolls on, the election of Ronald Reagan becomes one more background warning for Paul and his family.
