American Passages
An associative journey through the United States: a desillusioned Iraq veteran, gay adoptive fathers, black judges, white party animals and a pimp at a casino table in Las Vegas. The extreme contrasts of black and white, poor and rich, winners and losers are often as surpirising as the meaning of the constitutional right to the pursuit of happiness in these times of crisis.
