Driftwood

This film follows a father and son, who’s relationship I tried to base on my relationship with my father. We have solid bond, but if we were castaway on a deserted island for 6 months, I have no doubt it would deteriorate. In the film the son, Wilson, hopes to return home to his fiancée, but his father, Robert, has nothing to return to as his wife, Wilson’s mom, died in the shipwreck. This immediately causes a rift between the characters. Robert of course wants the best for his son, but that might not mean giving him what he wants. Wilson hopes to build a raft and go out to sea, but Robert worries it is more dangerous than waiting on the island for a rescue.
