Body and Son

Body and Son is an award-winning drama short from Atlanta filmmaker Chris Anthony Hamilton — whose screenplay was a Finalist at the Harlem International Film Festival Screenwriting Competition and a Semi-Finalist at the Nashville Film Festival Screenwriting Competition. DeShawn is a young boy who needs a father. What he finds is something else entirely — a dead body that becomes, in its own strange and touching way, exactly the father figure he has been looking for. A film that takes an unexpected premise and builds something genuinely moving from it — exploring childhood loneliness, the need for connection, and the quiet resourcefulness of a child who finds family where he can.
