About this event

“Capturing the Friedmans” (2003, 107 min), directed by Andrew Jarecki, follows an upper-middle-class family from Great Neck, New York, whose lives fall apart in 1987 when father Arnold and his 18-year-old son Jesse are arrested on child abuse charges tied to computer classes held in their home. Built almost entirely from raw home video footage, the film digs into truth, denial and systemic hysteria without offering tidy conclusions. English language | Free entrance
