God's Pocket

Mickey Scarpato and wife Jeanie attend the funeral of her son and his stepson, Leon. In a voice over, journalist Richard Shelburn reads from his column about the "working men of God's Pocket.”

Three days earlier, we see Mickey having sex with Jeanie as Leon takes pills before going to his job as a day laborer. While at work during lunch hour, Leon racially taunts an older African-American worker while brandishing a knife. The man bashes Leon on the head, killing him. Later, the workers at the site tell the police the death was an accident.
