SUFF - I Love My Dad
**INTERNATIONAL PREMIERE** After taking home the Grand Jury Prize & Audience Choice Award at this year’s SXSW, the darkly hilarious I LOVE MY DAD is kicking off SUFF #16! Independent filmmaker and actor James Morosini (whose micro-budget THREESOMETHING played to critical acclaim in 2018), used his own, bizarre real-life experience to write the award-winning script for I LOVE MY DAD and with an incredible cast including legendary actor and comedian Patton Oswalt, along with the always entertaining Rachel Dratch plus Claudia Sulewski, Lil Rel Howery, Amy Landecker and Ricky Velez, gave rise to the ultimate taboo-breakin' comedy for 2022!
Chuck (Oswalt) is a hopelessly estranged father who desperately wants to reconnect with his troubled son, Franklin (Morosini). Blocked on social media and concerned for his son’s life, Chuck impersonates a waitress online and starts checking in with Franklin. But things begin to spiral when Franklin falls for this imaginary girl (Sulewski) and wants nothing more than to meet her in person. This is the kind of film that was made to be enjoyed in the cinema and will have you cringing between bouts of raucous laughter. It's a surprisingly affecting story that is anchored by genuinely terrific performances from Patton Oswalt and James Morosini. Your ticket also includes a drink on arrival, canápes and after-party!
