E46 - Film About a Father Who

Oct 12

Filmmaker, poet, and educator Lynne Sachs in conversation with host Elizabeth Howard about her work, particularly her Film About a Father Who. The documentary probes a fragmented family, both bound and roiled by a secretive father’s serial love affairs and marriages, and his children’s struggle to make sense of their lives, as well as their relationships with one another. Sachs’s films blend many forms — essay, collage, performance, and documentary. Film About a Father Who is streaming as part of the Directed by Lynne Sachs series on the Criterion Channel.
