Tip from Cineville: Stockholms Filmfestival

Ryan “Holli-wood” Holliger is an outrageously charismatic pit bull of a man, father to six children with five different women. He has always dreamed of making a film about fatherhood with his best friend, and together with filmmaker Robert Greene, he finally gets his chance. The rest of his sprawling, unconventional family are also invited to make their own short films, and through their perspectives, he is forced to confront his mistakes and take responsibility for his shortcomings as a father.

Too Much Sugar is a portrait of fatherhood that looks like it takes place inside GTA – about how some dads would rather make a film than go to therapy.
