It's the 1950's and America is great. Well sort of. 'The Great Family' is an incredible look back at when everything seemed perfect through the lens of a family sitcom. But director Gus Kriger didn't stop rolling, and the great American family takes a dirty twist when reality kicks in. Laughs turn into cringes within seconds, and then into horror. The short film shines a grim spotlight on American history, showcasing the incredible contrast on how we remember the 50's. Mostly through similar family television shows and movies, and the reality of racist communities struggling with a changing world.
