An epileptic father and an eighteen daughter live in a symbiotic and limitless relationship. The father feels ashamed of her illness, he is frequently absent from work and shares this secret only with his daughter. Fearing to be left by her, he exercised on her a kind of silent influence for years, manipulating her choices. However, this insane relationship will be more and more dangerous.
This movie is about a sick relationship, almost incestuous, where characters’ weaknesses, instincts and unconscious desires pile up and merge, roughing out a complex psychological context.
Family Room is a portrayal of the insane familiar relationships and it is about how we depend on Freudian archetypes, even when we think we overcame them and somehow we moved with the times.
