Our take
In this poignant family history, director Alan Berliner rouses his reclusive, reluctant father to open up about his life, love, and pain, revealing how an ordinary life is inextricably woven into a wider lineage of family memories and ties. An intimate, subtly textured work that never feels prosaic.
