Clint Eastwood plays a veteran living in a rapidly-changing

 urban area . Increasingly isolated, he is forced to confront his

 long-held beliefs and prejudices by an attempted theft,

which brings him into close contact with his little-known

 neighbours.  Though he wants nothing to do with them,

a friendship develops that changes the lives of all concerned.

A contemporary American story.
