Father of Nations

I really enjoyed this film. Super thought-provoking. Post apocalyptic isn't my number one genre... But this would be the best film I've ever seen of it's type. Reminded me a bit of the film "Children of Men". If you're looking for something shallow or pure entertainment you might be disappointed... this asked a lot of deep questions and contained thought provoking subject matter. It seems pretty appropriate for the season we are living in where so much of society's future feels uncertain. The ending was surprising but hopeful. I thought it was well acted, with moments of humour. Lots of flashing back-and-forth to different time periods, so you have to pay attention. There was action interspersed with in-depth conversation. I think this film gets even better with multiple viewings because you understand it more and the layers and intricacies of it. The cinematography was really beautiful. I love the fact that it's an Alberta made film!
