‘Why do you think I’m making this film, Dad? – Oh, I don’t think it’s just for commercial reasons… You must have personal reasons too…’ The director returns to his family, and more specifically to his father, a communist activist for 60 years. Three generations come together to discuss politics, activism and perhaps… love.
