Modern Day Dad

Fatherhood is a role and identity that is complex, rewarding, and fraught with strong emotion. No matter where your experience with fatherhood lies, almost everyone has an opinion on it - and this forthcoming short film will navigate fatherhood in a way that hasn't been seen before.

The premise for this film is simple - it will showcase fatherhood from a variety of perspectives, and discuss the impact of a father's role in today's society. We'll be highlighting people who express their fatherhood in different ways, and adding context with commentary from mothers, children, childcare workers, and more. This will be a positive, uplifting, and eye opening view of today's modern fatherhood, full of both celebration and encouragement. This project means a lot to the director Jason Quammie and is a tribute to his late father.
