Children(1976)

Children is a contemplative drama following Robert Tucker, a withdrawn young gay man, as he sits in various waiting rooms and reflects on a pivotal year from his childhood. When his father dies, ten-year-old Robert is caught between the cruelty of bullies at his Catholic school and the silent grief unfolding at home, where his ailing father's anger and his mother's quiet resignation define the household. Left largely friendless and isolated, Robert navigates his loss alone—from the wake through the funeral and beyond. The film moves between past and present, exploring how early trauma shapes emotional distance and the lasting weight of unprocessed childhood grief. A quiet, introspective portrait of loneliness and the formative power of loss.
