Molly Gandour PEANUT GALLERY (2015, 93 minutes, video)
The Gandours were a family of four-mom, dad, and two daughters-from 1983 when Molly was born, until 1994 when her sister Aimee died of leukemia. Like so many other families in the wake of tragedy, the Gandours hobbled along as best they could, a four- legged animal on three legs. They didn't talk substantially about what had happened and how it felt. They did the best they knew how: lit candles, left flowers, went back to school, went back to work.
