JOEY DELROSSO is growing up in a strong Italian American family unit in Brooklyn, NY, centered around the winemaking business his grandfather ANGELO made. While he and his older brother, VINNY, were once close, they suddenly start drifting apart.
After crowning Joey the family's official winemaker, Angelo suddenly dies right after he leaves from visiting. Chaos and confusion ensue, and the winemaking business is put on the back burner.
After Vinny's gang gets in some legal trouble, Joey takes the blame and is going to jail for Vinny. Joey asks Vinny to take care of his girlfriend, COLLEEN.
It's soon revealed that Vinny raped Colleen while Joey was in jail due to jealousy and hate. Colleen distances herself and when Joey gets out, Vinny lies and tells him that Colleen left Brooklyn for Ohio to start a family with her husband.
Vinny kills a member of the rival gang, PAULY, in front of Joey, once again getting Joey wrapped up in his mess.
When the rival gang finds out, Joey and Vinny are beaten up and questioned. On the verge of death, Joey trips Vinny up with his words so the thugs can get the real culprit.
