Frankenstein Father (2023) NYAFF 2024


A successful and very OCD doctor is confronted by a young boy claiming to be his son from an illegal sperm donation years before. He wants compensation for the genetic defects he has. The doctor agrees to spend time with the boy to see if it could be true.

This is a cold and some what distant film, much like the character it its center. It is mannered  and calculated and it kept me at arms distance. I could never warm to either of the main characters because their largely unchanging expressions made them seem less than human.

I never cared.
