We are who we are born. Or do we have a chance to change it?

A feature film “City of Fathers“ tells a story of a thirty-five-year-old welder Richard who lives with his intellectual father, Richard Senior. One day, the hero finds out that the intellectual is not his biological father. He sets off to a distant city in order to find his real father among the members of a former punk band "Assholes". He searches for his own identity and roots. The story with great authenticity and humour demonstrates the importance of the environment and people who form us and raise us. Simultaneously, it raises the question of how important is the essential genetic foundation that we are given at the moment of our birth.
