Comments |
"There is the rural setting, the theme of difficulties migrants may encounter when they come to Australia, troubled relationships between the central characters and several different kinds of 'love stories'. It is a story of love and friendship, displacement, mental illness and belonging, told with subtle humour and a commitment to the often complex truths about families and friendship."
(Kiralyn Ridley)

Synopsis |
ROMULUS, MY FATHER is based on Raimond Gaita's critically acclaimed memoir. It tells the story of Romulus, his beautiful wife Christina, and their struggle in the face of great adversity to bring up their son, Raimond. It is a story of impossible love that celebrates the unbreakable bond between father and son.
------
It is the tale of a boy trying to balance a universe described by his deeply moral father, against the experience of heartbreaking absence and neglect from a depressive mother. (Kiralyn Ridley)
