Il n'y a pas de synopsis français pour ce film


"Everything being alike everything is different simply different naturally simply different."
Gertrude Stein

• Here are five of Bertha's children. They walk, they sit, they look at their watches, they speak their actions.

My great aunt Bertha had seven children who are now between fifty and sixty-five years old. They all grew up in New York City and, even after they became adults and had their own families, lived in the same geographic region. When I visited New York one winter, I asked each of them to be in a film and all of them agreed. When I returned the following winter, however, only David, Marty, Aaron, Bernie and Thelma would do it. Frieda, concerned about the crazy people who might see the film and then write her nasty anonymous letters, refused, and Sylvia
was in Florida at the time. --R. F. (1976)
