VINTAGE • FAMILIES OF VALUE
Thomas Allen Harris, 1995, 72 minutes
VINTAGE • FAMILIES OF VALUE is an experimental documentary that looks at three African American families through the eyes of siblings who are lesbian and gay—including the filmmaker and his brother, Lyle Ashton Harris. Anni Cammett, Anita and Adrian Jones are sisters and mothers forging their vision of matriarchy out of a turbulent history of love and betrayal. Paul and Vanessa Eaddy are the only two gay siblings of a family of eight from Baltimore, Maryland. However, internalized homophobia has prevented them from forming a friendship. Over the course of five years, the Harris brothers, the Eaddys and the Cammett/Jones sisters use camcorders and Super 8 film to construct frank and sometimes raw autobiographical portraits of their respective families in VINTAGE • FAMILIES OF VALUE.
+ Post-screening discussion with director Thomas Allen Harris!
