Synopsis: This multi-generational comedy/drama is set against the backdrop of the tumultuous late 1960s. It is a poignant glimpse of a Jewish working-class family trying to adjust to the changes in the world around them and their own family conflicts.

The family is forced into upheaval, and as a result, evolves in more ways than one.
