About This Movie

Päivä isän kanssa is this poignant documentary that captures a slice of life and longing. The filmmaker embarks on a journey, spending a single day with her father – a day he had envisioned in a letter yet never experienced due to his untimely death. There’s a rawness to it, as you feel the weight of memory and absence throughout. The pacing is contemplative, allowing moments of silence to resonate, almost like the unspoken words between them. It’s distinctive in how it blends personal narrative with universal themes of loss and reconciliation. The atmosphere is bittersweet, like a summer afternoon that should be filled with laughter but is touched by sorrow. The performances, though unscripted, feel genuine and deeply emotional.
