ROMULUS, MY FATHER (2007)

RICHARD ROXBURGH

Plot

Romulus and his beautiful, but depressive wife, Christina attempt to raise their son, Raimond, to the best of their abilities. As the deeply moral Romulus struggles to make up for the absence and neglect of the boy's mother, father and son build an unbreakable bond that is only strengthened with the passing of time. A sensitive adaptation of Raimond Gaita's acclaimed memoir, adapted for the screen by poet Nick Drake.
