Roberto Bueso’s ‘El mal padre’ competes at San Sebastián Film Festival

The film ‘El mal padre’, directed by Roberto Bueso, is competing in the Official Section of the San Sebastián International Film Festival. The movie explores themes of intergenerational dialogue and the complexities of fatherhood through the lens of a dysfunctional family reunion.

Starring Eduard Fernández as an acclaimed philosopher facing his final months, the narrative follows three adult siblings as they confront a patriarch whose career-driven absence caused long-standing resentment. The film uses a mix of sarcasm and emotional tension to reflect on how parental negligence can be inherited and the difficulty of breaking such cycles.
