The Son of Joseph

A darkly comedic allegory about paternal absence and redemption, where a son's violent impulse toward his cynical father transforms into unexpected familial love through his uncle's intervention.

A young man who lives with his mother and has never known his father, heads off to look for him. He finds a cynical and Machiavellian man who works as a publisher in Paris. After he attempts to kill him, he finds filial love thanks to his uncle.
