Film Description:
"Paternity is a 3 channel installation with furniture and
photography curtains. Paternity makes use of the landscapes
of New York, memories recalled in a five day intensive studio shoot,
gestures and text. It places these in juxtaposition in a humorous, touching
and critical inquiry about fathers and daughters, the passing on of
language and narrative, and the problem of nostalgia. The history of an
individual, Jerome D. Diamond, stands against the collective struggles of
radical union, Jewish and other groups"
