Short on money, the family settle in to a New York tenement populated by junkies, drag queens and a colourful assortment of characters, where they attempt to turn their apartment into a true home. While Johnny and Sarah see America as rife with challenges and dangers, their daughters see it as a magical place where anything can happen...
