What is Aftersun about?
Aftersun is a poignant indie drama that takes us on a trip down memory lane as Sophie, now an adult, reminisces about a vacation she took with her father, Calum, two decades ago. Through a blend of camcorder footage and fragmented memories, she pieces together the joyful moments and the bittersweet undertones of their time together. The film explores the complexities of their relationship, as Sophie tries to understand the man her father truly was beneath the surface.
