The relationships we have, or don’t have, with our parents can shape the way we navigate the world. In these five films, experience a wide representation of paternal relationships: a woman discovering a connection to music and her stepfather after his passing, a couple that is forever changed by a knock on their door, a father struggling with his morals and protecting his son, a man seeking connection with his father, and a woman grappling with her elderly father's request.

Charlotte receives a solemn phone call from her father, Henning, signaling that the time has come. A childhood promise resurfaces in her memory—a vow that, should the light of life ever fade for him, she would assist him in his journey to the beyond, but not until "a hundred years" had passed. Charlotte embarks on a poignant journey to her father's home, where Henning's mind remains sharp, but his request is clear. He desires not just a departure but a series of farewell gatherings with cherished friends and family.


Torn between honoring her promise and her own emotions, Charlotte reluctantly agrees to her father's request. Each dinner party becomes a canvas for vivid memories, where bittersweet laughter mingles with tears. As the gatherings unfold, Charlotte delves into her father's legacy, uncovering stories and connections she never knew existed. While there is hope that these celebrations might change his mind, the inevitability of his departure looms ever closer.
