In 1973, the Loud family became a television sensation of a new kind. It was long before a metal rock star showed his eccentric family on the small screen and decades before housewives had screaming matches with each other on camera in public. CINEMA VERITE tells the behind-the-scenes story of the groundbreaking documentary "An American Family," which chronicled the lives of the Louds in the early 1970s and catapulted the Santa Barbara family to notoriety while creating a new television genre: the reality TV series.
Cinema Verite is a 2011 drama that tells the behind-the-scenes story of the groundbreaking 1973 documentary 'An American Family,' which followed the Loud family and pioneered the reality TV genre. The film explores how this early experiment in documentary television transformed the Santa Barbara family into unexpected celebrities while reshaping television forever.
