The young, brilliant Emma Joseph (Stulik) proudly carries the torch of her family’s Marxist tradition by devoting her life to the memory of her famously blacklisted grandfather. When history reveals a shocking truth about the man himself, the entire family is forced to confront questions of honesty and an allegiance they thought had been long resolved. After the Revolution is a bold and hilariously moving portrait of an American family, forced to reconcile a thorny and delicate legacy.
