Experiencing Interruptions?

Dear Son

Dear Son is a vulnerable spoken word poetry short film chronicling a young couples journey through love, an unplanned pregnancy, and an abortion. We find ourselves in the flashback thoughts of the father: the self-loathing, doubts, fear, acceptance, love, regret, hurt and just the interconnected emotional spaces that is gone through during that time.
