Rivertown Film presents "Off and Running" at The Nyack Ctr 8:00 PM Wed. 10.27.10
Meet Avery Klein-Cloud, an African-American teenager at the center of this powerful, intimate documentary about family and identity. Raised in a household with white Jewish lesbian parents and two adopted non-white brothers, Avery's curiosity about her biological mother and her search for racial identity spark a life crisis.
But gradually she puts her life back together and re-connects with her close-knit adoptive family.
