FATHER MOTHER SISTER BROTHER: A cinematic triptych about family ties
FATHER MOTHER SISTER BROTHER is a masterfully composed feature film that illuminates the deep, often complex dynamics within a family in three chapters. The film focuses on adult children and the tension between them and their distant parents, as well as the bond between siblings.
Three stories - three countries - one present
The film unfolds as a triptych, with each part taking place in a different contemporary cultural setting:
- FATHER: Set in the sweeping landscapes of the North East USA.
- MOTHER: An intimate tale from the heart of Dublin.
- SISTER BROTHER: A look at sibling relationships in urban Paris.
Between character study and melancholic comedy
The work is characterised by its calm, observational narrative style. The film approaches its characters without judgement, creating space for authentic character studies. The result is a special genre experience: a subtle comedy that always has a delicate thread of melancholy running through it.
