An immigrant's tattoo parlor in a posh business area ignites the anger of its neighbors as the city tries to placate the people. Compromise works well for some and less well for others. After the drama, a short documentary reviews the appeal of America for the world's immigrants and their desire for a better life. Old footage and quotes illustrate the drive and gratitude of those who came and enriched America.
