Sons and daughters are supposed to be filial and respectful to their mothers. Yet when their mother grew old, the brothers made this rule that one of them would raise his mother for one year, and if her weight dropped during that year, as a punishment for being unfilial, he would have to raise her for another year. On the eighth day of April, the day was coming when the eldest son would come to fetch his mother. The second son was apparently filial and gave the old man a lot of good food, but in fact turned his mother into a "sow". When the sow is enough to weigh, it is also the day of slaughter.

"The Father" is a Depressing But Insightful Look at Dementia
With The Father, writer-director Florian Zeller- who wrote and developed the play upon which the film is based- pulls no punches as he confidently makes every effort to put the audience in the mind of someone whose grip on reality has all but vanished. It’s a dazzling testament to Zeller’s abilities as a director as he makes his first transition from stage to film appear as if he’s been working behind a camera his entire career. The dialogue he fashions with co-writer Christopher Hampton, along with the work of production designers Peter Francis and Cathy Featherstone, collectively makes the downward spiral of dementia startlingly tangible, doing so in a way that can be comprehended by everyone except the person it directly affects.
