 Boardwalk Poets is the story of Russo, an old school hood exiled from New York to watch over business on the edge of the continent, the edge of his world, and the edge of his dignity. Russo has one chance to make something good of his life, and that is to help his protege Joseph and his girlfriend Bleu out of the life their living. He has one chance for redemption, but has to make the ultimate sacrifice in doing so. Boardwalk Poets is about life, love, and the choices we make while surrounded with a crazy cast of characters that could only be found on Venice Beach boardwalk.
