So, 'Father' from '89 is this introspective drama that really captures the weight of expectations. Yonko, this young guy, keeps getting shut out of the art academy, which is pretty rough. And then his father steps in, but not in a comforting way—you can feel that tension. It’s like watching a slow unraveling, where dignity takes a backseat to familial pressure. The performances are raw, especially between the two leads, creating this palpable gap that’s tough to watch but deeply resonant. The pacing is deliberate, allowing the viewer to sit in those uncomfortable moments. What really stands out is how it explores the struggle between ambition and self-respect, wrapped in a very human, flawed narrative. Definitely a film that lingers.
