"Father of my children" is a very detailed picture of a niche film director, a workaholic who loves movies so much that he loses touch with the reality of the film industry and invests in features that have no chance of commercial success. It very realistically shows the slow demise of his family and the studio leading to the unevitable end. Quite a depressing screening which changed my mood for the whole day. Not recommended if you're just starting a business.
