Little White Lie is a feature-length documentary that tells Lacey’s story of growing up in a typical middle-class white Jewish household in Woodstock, NY, with loving parents and a strong sense of her Jewish identity — that is until she discovers that her biological father is actually a black man with whom her mother had an affair. When Schwartz uncovers her family secret, it leads her on a personal quest to examine the big issues of race, identity, and belonging. Shoshana Madmoni-Gerber, Communication, PhD, Communication, Journalism & Media will lead the post-screening conversation with Schwartz.
