In the wake of his father’s death, a young boy is forced to deal with, and ultimately respect, his mixed family’s Muslim and Christian mourning practices in Lebanese/Canadian filmmaker Jay Kamal’s touching short film Baba.
Baba swept up three awards in CineVic’s 2022 Short Circuit Pacific Rim Film Festival, winning Outstanding Direction, Cinematography, and Performance awards — so, of course, podcast host Joyce Kline just had to find out more from Jay!
