Children Without Parents
1:20:20 (Chicago, IL USA)
Dir. Casey Puccini

This film WILL BE a true story. Children Without Parents is a work of autobiographical fiction, where the filmmaker Casey Puccini explores his relationship with his brazen siblings in the days right after their father’s suicide. The orphaned adults soon enter into a match of emotional destruction, targeting each other’s insecurities, and channeling the worst of their posthumous father’s personality. Puccini plays himself in this heart felt pre-enactment, revealing the destructive underbelly of family dynamics.

Keywords: Family Drama, Dark Comedy, Micro cinema, Mumblecore, Independent, Family Issues, Personal Narrative

Programmer Note: Part Mumblecore, Part DIY filmmaking, “Children Without Parents” reminds me of “The Brothers McMullen”, but slyer with quirkier dysfunctional siblings.
