'Capturing The Friedmans'

On the Surface:


'normal family' torn apart because of what the father and one of his son were accused for child molestation. 
- lack of physical evidence
- Child Pornography


Deeper Meanings:


- Judicial System 
- Power if Roomers and the rate of escalation that they have.
- the truth? no physical evidence ties in with how the judicial system had to put the blame on somebody, obviously the Friedman Family was the most explainable person to put the blame on.  


In Pre-Productions, i would before going out and filming; i would research and try to find all the material that i could get before starting the live film. For instance all the old films that they got their hands of the home videos filmed by the Friedman Family helped the documentary and is a key example of Pre-Production research material.
