MY FATHER'S SCENT
by Mohamed Siam
synopsis
An ailing patriarch is discharged from the hospital, and his youngest son stays overnight in the confined spaces of the family home. In the morning the ailing patriarch is found dead. Suspicion immediately falls upon the youngest son, who had reluctantly stayed the night by his father's side. It is fuelled by distrust of the prodigal youngest son's reputation as being a loner and dropout underdog.
