Ghost Dad

  • Log in or register to post comments

In this family comedy, a successful businessman takes us on a journey between life and the afterlife, finding himself trapped in an unexpected limbo after a fatal accident. He, who has always been so absorbed in his work and making money, had no idea about what truly mattered: his family. Now, as a ghost, he becomes a spiritual protector to his three children, who are coping with the loss of their father while continuing with their daily lives.

As their lives unfold, the protagonist tries to communicate with them, but he doesn’t always succeed in getting his message across, leading to both comedic and emotional situations. A series of hilarious events ensue as the spectral father attempts to help his children with their problems, ranging from school pranks to complications with friends and even teenage romance. His invisible presence adds a touch of magic to their lives, though it also occasionally results in serious mix-ups.

Over time, he begins to understand that his previous life was centered around excessive work and that what truly mattered was being present for his family. The film blends comedy with touching moments, highlighting the true meaning of being a father and the importance of family. With a touch of the supernatural, it becomes a lesson about love, connection, and learning not to put off what is truly important. Will he find a way to say goodbye to his loved ones before it’s too late?
