This documentary is the companion piece to New York filmmaker Alan Berliner’s 1991 film Intimate Stranger which followed the fascinating life of his grandfather, a seemingly average man with an extraordinary life.
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.
