We all want to be the greatest parent who ever lived, don't we. A panel discussion + shorts about the struggles of being a father.
In Michael Bohnenstingl's Slouch a creative musician struggles with his emotional choices when he has to decide just how much of his life should belong to his girlfriend and the child they are expecting and to the music career he is dreaming about. It's the perfect example of something that a lot of artists go through. Accompanied by four short films about dads, this panel talk will try to give some insight into the challenges of fatherhood. Our guests Akwasi Ansah, Gianni (Grot) Lieuw-A-Soe and Faberyayo will talk about their engagement in their children's lives, parenting decisions, and the pain and the joys of parenthood.
Moderated by Chris Robinson.
