The Friedmans are a respectable, middle-class Long Island family, seemingly addicted to recording their daily lives first on super-8, then on video. But their world crumbles when the father, a popular teacher, is accused, along with the youngest of his three sons, of molesting schoolchildren. Unbelievably, the arrest, trial and its horrifying aftermath are all chronicled in the familys own home movies, revealing a tangle of contradictions and their comfortable world slowly disintegrates around them. The resulting story will haunt you long after the end-credits roll.
