Synopsis: June was once a celebrated counter-culture figure, but that was a decade ago. She now lives alone in her South Bronx apartment, having all but cut herself off from the outside world.

The city is on a knife’s edge, a pressure-cooker about to explode into the incendiary 1977 New York blackout riots.
