In A & P, Sammy (Sean Hayes), a nineteen year old supermarket clerk, defends
the honor of three girls in swimming suits against a repressive store manager. In so
doing he etches out an early definition of manhood for himself and learns the cost
of standing up for one's beliefs in a conforming society.

	When Queenie (Amy Smart) and her friends, dressed only in bathing suits, enter Lengel's A&P to buy herring snacks, the life of Sammy the cashier is changed forever.
