(auto-translated from Dutch)
Family Affair Films is a female-led production company dedicated to creating authentic stories that offer a fresh perspective and resonate with a global audience.
In December, we'll begin production on two short film projects: Patronymic (documentary) and Boemerang (fiction). More about the projects themselves below.
Patronymic is an experimental documentary in which filmmaker Mariia Ponomarova searches for the missing part of her name—the patronymic, derived from her father's. Reflecting on patriarchal traces, family ties, and the pain of longing, Mariia explores the fragile bond with her father, who remains behind in war-torn Ukraine.
Boomerang is a story about Ezra, whose 18th birthday isn't a celebration, but a hard deadline. It's the day the juvenile law no longer protects her and she has to leave the youth institution that is her home. Boomerang follows Ezra's desperate struggle against this inevitable farewell.
