The Sharks and the Jets are two
feuding street gangs in 1950's New York, the Jets being "American" and
the Sharks being Puerto Rican. At a dance at a gym, Jet
Tony falls in love with a Shark's
sister, Maria. They know they can't
be together because of the gang's war, but that doesn't stop them.
Meanwhile, The two gangs prepare for a rumble, and
Tony tries to stop it out of love for
Maria. In the process, his best
friend and Jet leader Riff is killed by Maria's brother, Bernardo. In
anger, Tony kills Bernardo. He
immediately realizes his mistake (killing the brother of the girl he
loves) and begs for forgiveness, which, of course,
Maria gives him. They decide they
have to leave the city, and the pointless hate, behind them. They plan
to meet at Doc's Candy Store and take a bus to the country. And
then everything goes very wrong . . .
