FOUL SHOTS

The Somme of mines and trenches that lies between a father and son. A British-educated son is teaching his illiterate American father how to read. The son goes about seeking emotional revenge on his once emotionally and physically distant dad. Yet through age the father has become more sensitive and yearns for an intimacy his son is incapable of providing. So the cycle of dashed affections between men seems damned to perpetuity.
