Joshua Then and Now (1985)

Some men rise to greatness because of their upbringing. Joshua did it in spite of his.

Based on a novel by Mordecai Richler, allegedly his autobiography, it tells the story of a Jewish writer, from his life as a young boy in Montreal to his more complicated grown-up life.
