Papa (2002)
He was a businessman, a jazz bandleader, a navy pilot—and a great dad.
Filmmaker Jon Alpert turns the camera on his own family in this intimate portrait of his aging father. As illness and declining vitality reshape his life, the film captures a deeply personal struggle with dignity, humor, and the bonds that hold a family together.
