Synopsis
Inspired by Philip Larkin’s poem “This be the Verse”, Your Mum and Dad is an exploration of the powerful dynamics of family relationships and the way they shape our lives.
In Czechoslovakia before the upheaval of World War II, Michael Moskowitz’s Jewish mother left home at seventeen without knowing if she would ever see her family again. What followed was a lifetime of trauma and dislocation for both her and her son. Allowed into the inner sanctum of the therapy room, filmmaker Klaartje Quirijns follows Moskowitz’s work with a New York-based therapist named Dr Kirkland Vaughans.
