Following closely in the footsteps of the ground-breaking 1973 documentary AN AMERICAN FAMILY, Fox's AN AMERICAN LOVE STORY lives up to it's predecessor's accomplishments, presenting an honest, insightful portrait of the thirty-year interracial marriage between Karen Wilson and Bill Sims. Distilled from over 1,000 hours of footage shot in the Sims' apartment, as well as on the road with Bill (a traveling blues musician) and at Karen's high school reunion in small town Ohio, the film delivers a well-developed, multidimensional view of Karen and Bill's relationship--plumbing the insular dynamics of a mixed-race family while exploring broader themes of love, identity, and race in America.
