Plot

In the world of scams and hustles, Yonkers Joe reigns supreme, a maestro in the art of deception, using cards and dice as his tools of trade. The thrill of his next big casino scam in Atlantic City is what fuels him, not his complicated relationship with Janice, his girlfriend and reluctant con-partner. But, an unexpected twist in his well-crafted plot arises in the form of his son, Joe Jr. Joe Jr., a young man standing on the precipice of his 21st birthday, grapples with his own battles. His mental challenges are exacerbated by his impending transition from a group home to an adult facility, a change that triggers his belligerence. His anonymous existence, untouched by his father's presence, further fuels his turmoil. At the behest of Joe Jr.'s counselor, Yonkers Joe is thrust into an unfamiliar role - that of a father. He's tasked with calming his son's agitation and assisting in his transition. But in a world ruled by deception, can a mentally-challenged, neglected young man find his place? Can a father, so adept at masking his emotions, find a way to connect genuinely with his son? And amid all this, can Yonkers Joe pull off his grand casino scam? The plot of Yonkers Joe is a riveting exploration of unexpected fatherhood, the art of the hustle, and the power of genuine connection in a world built on illusions.
