A Collection of My Father
"A Collection of My Father" tells the story of Vincent Faulls, a WWII soldier, husband and father -- through the memories of his daughter. We come to understand our Greatest Generation veteran as an entrepreneur, dancer and caretaker to a mom suffering through Alzheimers. The daughter remembers a dad that loved, sacrificed, remarried, danced, and served.

Jesse Cullier Sutterley graduated from San Francisco State with a Bachelor's Degree in History and a Minor in Journalism. He has always been passionate about history and what it means to understand our past as well as one another. He has edited numerous films, including the feature documentary The Forgotten War (2020). His directorial debut, The Bataan Death March (2021), is currently in festival and winning major awards. Aside from his accolades as a filmmaker, Jesse has produced a 24 issue photography magazine and works as a graphic artist.
It is an honor to make films about our World War Two soldiers, and to include the voice of a daughter is especially meaningful. Vincent Faulls served in Germany and went on to raise his children and take care of his first wife when she suffered from Alzheimers disease. I hope you find this to. be a moving portrait of a WWII hero, great father and a loving husband.
