Father's Chair

Streaming video - 2013

This crowd pleaser produced by *City of God* director Fernando Meirelles and headlined by Brazilian screen superstar Wagner Moura takes us on a road trip through the São Paulo nightscape, from shiny new suburbs to shantytown slums, with Theo, a successful doctor in search of his run-away son. Official Selection at the **Sundance Film Festival**. Winner of the Audience Prize for Best Fictional Film at the **Rio de Janeiro Film Festival**. *“Crowd-pleasing…terrific lead performance from Wagner Moura…production design and cinematography are top notch.” – Andrew Barker, **Variety*** *“Moura’s unorthodox celebration of family values is full of delightful wrong turns, subtle performances and gently uplifting observations on rando...m human kindness.” – Stephen Dalton, **The Hollywood Reporter***
