Like Father Like Son(2002)

Like Father Like Son is a Polish television film from the "Polish Holidays" series, written and directed by Ryszard Bugajski, the acclaimed filmmaker behind Interrogation. The tragicomic story follows three generations—grandfather, father, and son—reunited for Father's Day, though all know their time together is limited by a serious illness. As the family gathers, they confront long-buried regrets, old grievances, and past misunderstandings. Through their brief reunion, each learns to see life differently, shed defensive barriers, and rediscover what truly matters. The film explores how mortality can strip away pretense, allowing families to heal rifts, resolve disputes, and strengthen bonds before it's too late. A meditation on transience, destiny, and the values we overlook until we're forced to reckon with them.
