2026 African Film Festival Atlanta Shorts Program 1: "Father Town" (Day 2)

From the venue:

"Father Time"

In a life of deadlines and activities a father and son share a heartfelt, coming of age conversation during video game play, unaware that it's their last; as they speak about do’s and don’ts, memories and unspoken dreams, a sudden revelation forces them to confront the fragility of time and the love that binds them.
