DADDY is one family’s coming-of-age story that began as an old man’s coming out story.
Facing her father’s late-in-life coming out and her mother’s broken heart, a young filmmaker embarks on a poignant journey documenting her family’s struggle with identity, grief, and acceptance in the American South. As the years pass, the film becomes an unexpected exploration of intergenerational queerness, revealing a universal story of family, forgiveness, and the enduring search for belonging.
