Father Figures 2017

Fraternal twin brothers, Kyle Reynolds and Peter Reynolds, grapple with shocking revelations about their family history. Their life takes an unexpected turn when they discover that their biological father, who they thought had passed away during their childhood, is very much alive. Their colorful mother, Helen Baxter, who was quite the free spirit in the 1970s, is uncertain about their father’s identity due to her past relationships.

As a proctologist, Peter finds himself in the midst of a mid-life crisis, struggling with his tumultuous relationship with his teenage son, Ethan. Feeling the weight of not knowing his own father, Peter embarks on a journey to connect with his biological roots, especially when Helen drops the bombshell that they might be related to none other than football legend, Terry Bradshaw.

Excited about the prospect, the brothers hop on a plane to Miami, where they hope to meet Terry during a signing event. He takes to Peter immediately, but things become complicated when Rod Hamilton reveals they were in Australia at the time of Peter and Kyle’s conception, which leads them to suspect the real truth behind their fatherhood.

Seeking answers, the brothers end up tangled in a series of misadventures that include car hijacking and a botched repo job, culminating in a trip to the hospital where they discover they are not blood relatives after all.

Their quest to unveil their lineage leads them to a mysterious hitchhiker, who surprisingly provides wisdom amid their chaotic journey. > “Sometimes the answers are hidden right under your nose,” he tells them.

As the tale unravels, Peter and Kyle face a shocking twist involving a potential half-sibling, leading to further revelations about their mother and her relationships. The brothers find themselves at a wake where more family secrets come to light, culminating in a face-to-face confrontation with Dr. Walter Tinkler, and a shocking admission from Helen — she isn’t their biological mother, and their birth origins are tied to a tragic moment decades ago.

Fast forward a year, the twins have embraced their new realities.
