"When do we eat" is a zany Jewish family comedy about a modern Jewish family's Seder that reveals the slaveries and liberations that plague and set free every family. Amid laughter and tears , their generational joys and sorrows are played out against the backdrop of holocaust ghosts , lesbian love,drug and work addiction, a disappointing marriage, religious and sexual extremism and a truly unusual case of idiot savant. Are these wacky modern film families a response to the weirdness of contemporary family life or are they a tempting relief that mercifully tells us that our families are at least not this strange??!! Without answering this question , this film eloquently allows each eccentric configuration to become a truly human image and voice that would appear and speak to every eye and ear that might perceive.
