A Model Family in a Model Home(2015)

A Model Family in a Model Home is a film about Bertolt Brecht's unrealized Hollywood screenplay, adapted from a Life Magazine article. The story follows a farm family who wins a week-long stay in a model home at the Ohio State Fair, only to discover they must live their lives on public display. Written during the German playwright's frustrating time in 1940s Los Angeles, the project captures Brecht's sharp eye for the absurdity of American consumer culture and the performance of domesticity. The film explores themes of privacy, spectacle, and the collision between rural authenticity and manufactured suburban ideals. It's a darkly comic examination of how ordinary people become unwilling attractions in the machinery of mid-century American aspiration, told through the lens of one of theatre's most incisive political minds.
