FATHER MOTHER SISTER BROTHER is a feature film, though carefully constructed in the form of a triptych. The three stories all concern the relationships between adult children, their somewhat distant parent (or parents), and each other. Each of the three chapters takes place in the present, and each in a different country.

Nicolas Rapold Sight & Sound What Jarmusch has called his “quiet film” speaks with clarity as one from the heart. Sep 8, 2025 Full Review Glenn Kenny RogerEbert.com For the first two sections of its three-story construction, it's a painstaking look at repressed emotions, of families who can’t be anything but awkward with each other. Sep 2, 2025 Full Review Philip De Semlyen Time Out Not top tier Jarmusch, but still a funny, soulful anthology worth seeking out. Rated: 3/5 Aug 31, 2025 Full Review Yasmine Kandil Discussing Film It's as if every interesting concept proposed in Father Mother Sister Brother is entirely futile and carries no weight whatsoever. What stands when the credits roll is an empty shell of a film. Rated: 1/5 Sep 7, 2025 Full Review Frank J. Avella The Contending ... a slew of fab deadpan comic performances, beginning with the great Charlotte Rampling, Blanchett and Krieps add to the fun...but are done a disservice by contrived and mundane dialogue. In his desire for subtlety, Jarmusch only achieves banality. Rated: C+ Sep 5, 2025 Full Review Manu Yáñez Fotogramas ...'Father Mother Sister Brother' is pure poetry cinema, filled with bucolic scenes, cosmopolitan hymns, and characters going through life giving their all...[Full review in Spanish] Rated: 5/5 Sep 3, 2025 Full Review Read all reviews
