Synopsis: My Fathers Keeper is the story of Jonathan Silin, a gay man in midlife who learned to care for his elderly parents as a series of life-threatening illnesses forced them to make the difficult transition from being independent to relying on their son. Their new needs radically transformed what had been a distant and emotionally frought relationship into one filled with intimate daily contact.
