Set in a Jewish neighborhood in Baltimore during 1954–at a time when integration had just been legally enforced–this is the story of the Kurtzmans: Van (Adrien Brody), Ben (Ben Foster), Ada (Bebe Neuwirth), and Nate (Joe Mantegna). The characters are believable, funny, and sad as they uniquely deal with the changing world around them.
