My Father and My Son
A grieving left‑wing journalist returns to his family farm determined to mend the rift with his ailing, tortured father and secure a stable future for his newborn son—only to confront deep political wounds and bitter resentment that threaten tearing them apart again.
“Give Him a Room Dad, He Has Nowhere to Go...”
Synopsis
A left-wing journalist, whose wife died during childbirth amid a military coup, returns to his family's farm. He is estranged from his father, whom he blames for abandoning the family and squandering his life on political activism. Seeking reconciliation, he hopes to provide a stable home for his son, as his father's health is declining due to the lasting effects of torture he endured.

How many hands made this film
The scale of the collaboration
Principal cast & crew: 30
These are the principals we have on file — the full crew ran to the hundreds. Every film this size was made by far more hands than any credits list ever names.
Why a floor?
This is a minimum, not a total. We only count the credits we’ve captured so far, and coverage is uneven — a blockbuster might show a few hundred names while another of the same size shows a couple dozen. The real crews all ran into the thousands. The number here only grows as full credits are enriched — so we frame it as a floor, never a headcount.
