After being kicked out of his retirement home, a father must learn to live with his estranged son in a hippie commune in the quirky comedy Un Padre No Tan Padre.

Set in the stately and majestic colonial city of San Miguel de Allende, the Spanish-language film stars Héctor Bonilla, Benny Ibarra de Llano, Jacqueline Bracamontes, Arturo Barba and Sergio Mayer Mori.

It follows 85-year old Don Servando Villegas (Héctor Bonilla) an old-fashioned Mexican patriarch who gets kicked out of his retirement home for bad behavior. When his estranged son, Francisco (Benny Ibarra de Llano) is forced to take him into the house full of hippies he shares with his girlfriend and young son, “new age” collides with old age as Don Servando and his son experience a series of conflicts and situations that put their home’s stability in jeopardy.

Oh, and in English, Un Padre No Tan Padre translates to From Dad to Worse.
