Vader

DIRECTOR / ISABEL LAMBERTI

A short documentary by Isabel Lamberti about the relationship between a father and a son, produced as part of Teledoc Campus.

FATHER explores the relationship between a father and his nearly adult son, whom he has not seen for almost six years. Father Jacinto takes Shakur on a road trip to strengthen their bond. In between, he calls his girlfriend to reflect on the past.
