The Father
USA2019fiction9'Konkurs krótkometrażowy (2020)
Andrei must sign documents in order to have his father disconnected from life support. This definitive decision triggers old memories in the man. "The Father" is a subtle story, full of tenderness, about the relationship between the father and the son, the most important things and moments that shape us as human beings. It is a personal and intimate film about the handover of responsibility between generations and the moment when one irrevocably ceases to be a child and begins to bear the entire burden of the everyday life oneself. This enormous emotional load is locked in a simple, albeit poignant, form lasting a little under 10 minutes.
