Edited by: Kathryn Hood Moore Original Music by Chris Rob About the Series: Benjamin Boyd, Sr. returns home after years of incarceration, determined to reunite his family by rekindling the love between he and his wife and re-assuming his role as father to his teenage daughter and 20-year-old son, E.

Furthermore, the movie uses the short form to its advantage: the director cuts immediately after the altercation between father and son, suggesting that things cant actually be repaired. Its a much more honest, powerful statement than any gift-wrapped reconciliation youd find elsewhere. - Christopher Bell (Indiewire)
