These are people who have made a choice and are living with the consequences, and during the course of the film they will have to re-evaluate their decisions.

Rating: 4/5 --
A touching, forgotten drama about a family of radicals still running from the consequences of their actions. River Phoenix, Lahti and Hirsch all are wonderful. A must-see.
