About Father's Affair
Armin is in crisis. One fateful day he discovers he is infertile and has been throughout his life. From this he discovers his first wife, Monika, was unfaithful before she died. How else could she have the child that Armin always thought was his? His paranoia drives him to find the truth.
Directed by Maarten Treurniet, Father's Affair leans on a strong ensemble — Peter Paul Muller, Carice van Houten, Halina Reijn — to carry a story that balances spectacle with character.
The film landed with audiences for its craft and performances, and remains one of the most talked-about drama titles of 2003.
