In this 1992 POV Classic, filmmaker Alan Berliner puts his late grandfather, Joseph Cassuto, at the center of a personal, single-family saga that shines a light into the silent, shadowy corners that are present in all families. When the film premiered at the New York Film Festival, The New York Times called it "a rich, tumultuous portrait of family life with a powerful, bittersweet universality."
