The Good Father

2022 · 100 min Thriller Family Drama
5.1 / 10 · TMDB

Five years ago, Hana’s family was shattered by a tragic car accident. Her mother has been in a coma ever since, her father walks with a limp, and her younger sister Luna suffered severe burns that left her wearing a mask. Hana has no physical injuries, but carries the heavy burden of survivor’s guilt and hasn't been to school since. Hana befriends Jun, a boy who is searching for answers about his mother’s mental collapse into silence. As Jun finds more similar cases, he begins to suspect that Hana's father – a psychotherapist – is somehow connected. One day, Hana’s father brings home a woman he says is their mother, awakened from her coma. Luna accepts her without question, but Hana is convinced that the woman is not her mother – her appearance is too different. Who is she, and why would she pretend to be their mother?

🎬 MovieFinder's Take

The film constructs its dread through a meticulous accumulation of domestic unease, relying on lingering glances and loaded silences more than overt scares. It explores the corrosive nature of guilt and the fragility of memory within a family unit pretending at normalcy.

What lingers after the credits roll is a profound disquiet about the stories we tell ourselves to survive, and the cost of those fictions. A chilling puzzle where the most terrifying monster may wear a caring face. — MovieFinder Editorial

Director: Sho Kataoka
