Description:
Award-winning New York independent filmmaker Alan Berliner was vexed to find that he shared his name with 12 other Alan Berliners around the world. He wondered, "Where do they live? What kind of people are they? Are there better Alan Berliners than I am?" Suffering from an acute case of "Same Name Syndrome," he invited them all to dinner. You don't have to be an Alan Berliner to be fascinated by this idiosyncratic 60-minute documentary, originally broadcast on the PBS series P.O.V. How do names affect who we are, and how we look at one another? Berliner interviews total strangers, his parents, and the other Berliners for funny, poignant insights into the age-old question "What's in a name?" --Donald Liebenson
