“Daddy” A Melodrama
A young black artist meets an older white art collector. A gospel choir emerges from an infinity pool. A mother stops at nothing to save her son’s soul. In this Bel Air tale of love and family, intimacy is a commodity and the surreal gets real. When it’s summer every day, when even is it?
