Dad

About This Movie

So, 'Dad' directed by Mariy Rosen in 2025 really dives into some heavy emotional territory. The pacing is quite deliberate, almost contemplative, which gives you time to sit with the characters' struggles. The tone is gritty, almost oppressive at times, reflecting the protagonist's internal turmoil after years in prison. The performances, especially from the lead, are raw and unvarnished, pulling you into their conflicting motivations. The family dynamics are unsettling, with the stepson’s obsession becoming a pivotal point of tension that spirals out of control. It’s not your typical drama; it challenges you to think about guilt, redemption, and the sometimes twisted nature of familial love. The atmosphere is thick, making the viewer feel every ounce of despair and longing.

Intense family dynamics · Strong character development · Thought-provoking themes
