Call Me Dad

Films Media Group, (film distributor.). Sideways Film (Added Author).

Summary: This is a story about men who have perpetrated, or are at risk of perpetrating, family violence. At stake is the safety of children and partners, the stability of families, and the power we as a society have to intervene. These men struggle to maintain intimate relationships without resorting to abuse, physical or otherwise. We follow a group of men who have all committed acts of violence and intimidation against their families, but desperately want to change. Meeting once a week, these men attempt to take responsibility for their violence, change themselves- and perhaps heal fragile bonds with their loved ones.
