David Proval plays man child Nunzio, a hulking mama's boys who fantasizes that he is Superman and runs around on the roof of his New York apartment building wearing a cape. He has a menial job as a grocery delivery boy. A street gang hassles him whenever given the chance, but Nunzio's brother always shows up to beat them down. Nunzio falls in love with a girl who works at a nearby bakery, but when she turns out to be married he begins a downward spiral. He performs a final act of bravery when a fire breaks out, becoming the Superman he always dreamed about. Odd little drama with an interesting cast, including Joe Spinell as a grocer and Theresa Saldana as a neighborhood slut who seduces Nunzio in a rather uncomfortable sex scene.
