Some Longings Survive Death, by Dario Robleto

Clifford Odets was called before HUAC in 1952; one of his first plays was about unionized workers choosing to strike. Walt Odets talks about his father's life and work. Also, Dario Robleto's sculptures in the UC Berkeley Art Museum exhibition Human/Nature address multiple phenomena, among them melting glaciers, extinction, and mourning.
