Capturing the Friedmans (2003)
A primera vista, los Friedman (Arnold Friedman, Elaine Friedman, David Friedman, Seth Friedman y Jesse Friedman) parecen una típica familia americana. Judíos de clase media-alta, él es un reconocido profesor, ella es ama de casa, y viven con sus tres hijos en Great Neck (Long Island). Un Día de Acción de Gracias, mientras la familia se prepara para la cena, la Policía irrumpe en su casa, la registra de arriba abajo y detiene a Arnold, el padre, y a su hijo de 18 años, Jesse. Ambos salen de casa esposados entre una nube de periodistas, focos, cámaras y camiones apostados en su jardín. Padre e hijo son acusados de pederastia. La familia proclama su inocencia, pero los Friedman se convierten en blanco de la ira de sus vecinos. Capturing the Friedmans es un documental que analiza la naturaleza escurridiza de la verdad a través del prisma de uno de los casos criminales más extraños de la historia americana. (FILMAFFINITY)
