Conflicts of a struggling African-American family who suddenly come into a financial windfall.
"Adapted from a play of the same name and released during a period of great political and social unrest, the movie portrays a family struggling for their place in the sun – which includes facing prejudice and poverty. A powerful study of that moment, with great performances, and unfortunately still resonating in today's world."
