The Son(2023)

Storyline

• A 17 year old boy is going through severe psychological trauma ever since his father had divorced his mom and moved out. The boy appears to have lost interest in life. His mother and father try their best to counsel him and put him through professional therapy but things don't seem to be working out. Will his emotional turmoil reduce with time? — madanmarwah Depressed Nicholas, the estranged 17-year-old son of busy Manhattan lawyer Peter Miller, has been skipping school for weeks. And then, Peter's troubled ex-wife Kate shows up at his door. As the former couple discuss Nicholas' alarming behaviour, rocky parent/child relations disrupt the newfound domestic bliss of often-absent Peter and his second wife, Beth. But guilt-ridden Peter is convinced he can help. Instead, as The Father (2020) tries to handle his teenage son's crippling anxiety, suddenly, old patterns emerge. They say like father, like son. Is Peter doomed to make the same mistakes? — Nick Riganas
