Teaser trailer for "My Father's War" released
The teaser trailer for the bilingual drama, My Father’s War, was released on Monday.
This drama focuses on the broken relationship between a father and his rebellious teenage son and is set in 2003 when 19-year-old Dap Smit (Edwin van der Walt) is constantly fighting with his father, Dawid (Stian Bam).
His father is a veteran of the Border War and the two do not see eye to eye on anything.
There seems to be no hope for reconciliation between them and Dawid’s wife, Karina (Erica Wessels) is caught in the middle of their epic battle.
Dap then has a series of dreams in which he is a combat soldier in the Border War in the 1980s. There he meets his father at the same age, and those dreams turn young Dap’s perception – and life – completely upside down. There’s no going back, but what is the way forward?
The film combines the theme of a broken relationship with the Border War through instrumental dream sequences and overcomes the gap between a father and his son even though the war occurred almost thirty years ago.
