Program Note
All about My Father is a documentary about a well-respected medical doctor and transvestite in a small Christian town in Norway. The film is directed by the one person most likely to convey his story with warmth, humor and irony: his son. With a small video camera and the family’s Super-8 films, he set out to make a personal portrait of his transvestite father.
“I made a deeply personal portrait of him where his transvestism and strong self-realization form the basis of the film . . . My family is not unique - there are many families like mine - and by making this film I hope others can see their family in perspective. In order to do this, I could not compromise - personal confrontation was paramount in making this a genuine film.” (Even Benestad)
With powerful and emotional music by Kaada, this unique and transformative film touches our feelings for the non-traditional in a very warm and humorous way.
