The Masculinity Project: Remix: In Search of Our Fathers

Produced by Marco Williams. Remix produced & edited by Sabrina Gordon.

In this special remix of Marco William's very personal documentary, we follow the filmmaker as he unveils a seven-year quest to find his natural father, a man his mother barely knew. Traveling in many places in the U.S. and far as Paris, he investigates himself to better understand the missing man, and the documentary culminates in the older man meeting this child he did not know he had.
