This program shows both the changes in and the endurance of traditional Latino families. In following the paths of three generations of one Mexican American family, it traces the patterns of migration and cultural change. It shows how the traditional roles of the Latino elderly are being altered by their families’ needs, and also how the traditional pleasures can still be celebrated on a Sunday in the park with "la familia."
