Description

"My father is: At home at nine o'clock. "My father is not: At home at twelve o'clock". Generational, universal craftiness, just as valid whether you cover your head with a Muslim veil or you wear it with the air of an atheist. Because they are teenagers and friends. And they’re in on it together, and there is a lot of rebellious laughter, questions in common, and prejudices to fight against. And whatever some might say is of little interest to them. Debut film, made for a Masters in Theory and Practice of Creative Documentary Film at the UAB.
