Synopsis

A documentary about three generations of a NY Puerto Rican family, narrated by the eldest successful gay son.

Description

With devastating and inspiring effect, charismatic members of a tight-knit Puerto Rican family share their pain and disappointments in this gripping documentary. Robert, 29, is the eldest of five children in the Torres clan, which clusters around matriarch Marta's crowded Brooklyn flat. A college graduate, Robert lives in Greenwich Village, works as a teacher and administrator in the bilingual school he cofounded for underprivileged kids, and watches over his siblings. Beatriz, called Betty, vanishes periodically, then promises to enter a program to overcome her dependence on crack and heroin. Tati has moved to Florida to deal with her own addictions. Danny, having spent half of his 23 years behind bars, is recently paroled from Riker's Island. Milly, the youngest at 13, has thus far escaped the fates of many poor Puerto Rican immigrants. Marta, tirelessly raising the brood of grandchildren abandoned by her children, believes her love for her family will eventually alleviate their problems and, with Robert's loyal support, refuses to lose hope. Robert himself dreams of a better-paying job and a boyfriend. Hip-Hop and Latin music pervade the soundtrack of this brutally honest and emotionally powerful portrait of an American family.
