              Shubhdeep Singh Parwana / Denmark & India / 2025 / World Premiere / 24 min

              A simple and beautiful portrait of a filmmaker and his father, shot in one long take on a bench in Punjab.

              Two men sit on a bench. You don’t quite know where, but as their conversation unfolds, you realize that they are father and son, and that their shared history is long, complex, full of warmth and perhaps has a sore spot or two. Filmmaker Shubhdeep Singh Parwana’s father emigrated from Punjab to Copenhagen in 1974, started a family and made a life for himself. In 2013, he decided to move back to India after almost 40 years in Denmark. ‘Close to Home’ is a simple and beautiful film in one long take that contains all the humor, love and little silences in their candid conversation.
