Museum of Fine Arts, Boston Boston Premiere In person: Director Cindy Kleine Co presented by: Women in Film and Video/New England Phyllis and Harold Director: Cindy Kleine Country: USA released 2008 Duration: 85 min. Language: English Filmmaker Ken Burns (“Jazz”) calls Cindy Kleine’s frank and fearless chronicle of her parents’ disastrous 59 year marriage "a masterpiece.” Drawing on a lifetime of family home movies and 12 years’ worth of interviews, Kleine uncovers family secrets and tells a story that could not be shown publicly when her father was still alive. The film reflects years of work on Kleine’s part, beginning with her short film, ‘Til Death Do Us Part, shown in our 2001 Festival.
