Father - Dietrich Brüggemann

show
A young man at the bedside of his dying father. The father is on the threshold – still there yet already gone. You can still talk to him, maybe he'll hear, but he won't answer. The young man reflects on his own life while envisioning his future.
Western cultural history has engaged with the figure of the father since its outset. The familial relationship serves as a screen for projecting stabilizing or overwhelming authority. However, since early industrial society's gender-based division of labor, busy fathers have been above all absent.
But what does this imminent, very concrete absence at the moment of death mean for the biography of descendants? What questions would one have wanted to ask? What answers are lost forever with the father's death? And how many secrets does this man, who raised you and who now lies as an elder in this bed, take to his grave?
