After the Unveiling is a film about change. It is a personal documentary done in diary format of my mother's life immediately following my father's death. It begins with cultural rites proceeding death, that of sitting "shive", and goes on to record the many daily acts my mother once shared with her husband and must now face alone. Delineated is the integral place that my mother's religion and cultural holds for her, the inevitable influence it has on me, and the resulting conflict that is created for my mother and myself by me selecting a mate from a different religious background.
129 minutes. 1981. 16mm, color, sound.
