Description:

In this thought-provoking short documentary, director Danic Champoux delves into the lesser-known world of itinerant fathers who sacrifice their personal lives to provide for their families. By examining his own search for his absent father, Champoux ponders a universal question - how many men must continue to leave their loved ones behind in pursuit of work? These nameless laborers, often overlooked by society, are depicted as silent providers, yet at what personal cost? As part of the Libres Courts collection of first-time documentary shorts, this film offers an intimate look into a largely unnoticed aspect of family life and the sacrifices made for financial stability.
