| Los Angeles, CA 1963 -- Roman and Virginia Robinson survive a historic, yet eventful journey through the next three decades. Roman is rough around the edges and confronts the environment head on. Virginia fights through internal conflicts to attain her goal of becoming an attorney. |
| Kennedy was president and one of the top songs was Soldier Boy. For some, including Roman Robinson and his sister Virginia, times were not so innocent. Their strength and confidence in one another helps them achieve their goals. |
