Sadly, the problems affecting the Raineys, the African American family whose north Philadelphia home accommodates this heartening documentary, are all too familiar: poverty, drugs, gun violence.

...gorgeously humane...

...[the] attention to the tender details of daily life stops the film from descending into “poverty porn”.
