This film is lovingly created and deeply touching. What happens when parents are forced to say goodbye and children must go on without them? I first became interested in Ethel Rosenberg after viewing "Angels in America". I thought Meryl Streep had done a great job of making us remember Ethel. Ivy's film has been honest and makes me want to understand what truly happened here.
Michael and Robert (Rosenberg) have done an amazing job of holding each other up through the years. This film is a must see.
There are moments in the film where Ivy is fighting her own emotions while telling the tale of her Uncle and Brother. Why did none of the brothers and sisters of the Rosenberg's come forward to take the boys? The important questions are both asked and answered here. Also important, Ivy is not trying to convince us her Grandparents were perfect. Rather, she is showing the world the questions that still haunt them all. I recommend this film.
