So, 'Mein Vater und ich' tends to fly under the radar, but there's something kind of raw and genuine about it. The pacing is a bit uneven, which I think adds to the realism of an elderly man's chaotic life after a stroke. The film captures the stark contrast between the professor's intellectual past and the reality of an old age home, which is often portrayed with a mix of humor and melancholy. The performances are quite compelling, particularly the lead. There's a certain warmth in the relationships he forms, even in a place that feels so confining. And while it’s not high on practical effects, the focus on dialogue and character interaction gives it a real depth. Worth a watch if you're into character-driven stories.
