“My Father’s Tracks” is screening at Asian Pop-up Cinema
The protagonist of the story is Taiga Kitamura, a 29-year-old whose efforts to become an actor in Tokyo have hit a wall, as his manager claims that his performances lack soul. At the same time, the young man has already lost his mother when he was young, essentially blaming his father, whose career in rally has taken up most of his time, neglecting him, his brother, and their mother. Neither of the two siblings talk to him anymore, and his pleas for Taiga to visit the rural area where he runs a car repair shop are met with denial, even dismissal on occasion.
