During the 10 years (1972-1982) that he served as bartender & manager of New York's Terminal Bar, Sheldon Nadelman took over 2500 photographs of the clientele and the activities inside and outside the bar.

Year's later Sheldon's son, Director Stefan Nadelman, takes these photos and uses them to create a kinetic, photo-driven documentary that tracks the transformation of yesterday's gritty American-Irish bar to today's African-American gay bar.
