My Single Father

In this deeply personal short documentary, student filmmaker Hanwen Wang turns the camera inward, offering an unvarnished glimpse into the life of his father: a middle-aged divorced man trapped in a monotonous job and quietly seeking joy to cope with his solitude.

Through the act of filming, Hanwen reflects on the delicate balance between observer and participant, capturing not just a portrait of his father, but a moment of reconciliation between them.

The result is a powerful study of distance, devotion and the invisible ties that bind.
