Description

If you could relive one moment of your existence, just one, to transform your life, do you know which moment you would choose?<div> This is the true story of a son who impulsively sets off to find his father. Except his father died 15 years ago, and he never lived with him. The son finds three maps: one of the Congo, one of Antarctica, and one of Libya. Three countries where his father lived and worked.</div><div> Notebook in hand, the son takes to the road... With Son of a Bastard, Emmanuel De Candido clings to the ball of fire that pulses in his stomach, travels across three continents and nearly a century of history.</div><div> Between Congolese independence songs and his mother's failed euthanasia, between the crackle of Libyan weapons and the birth of his son, between katabatic winds and the panting breath that keeps him upright, he traces a dazzling and intimate epic that deconstructs notions of filiation, heritage and virility.</div>
