When Thomas Jefferson died in 1826, he left behind a mountain of personal debt, forcing his heirs to sell his beloved Monticello home. This documentary reveals how the Levy family owned and carefully preserved Monticello for nearly a century. It’s a story that intersects with the rise of antisemitism in America.
