The Bodybuilder and I

Best Canadian Documentary @ Hot Docs, Atlantic International Film Festival. Special Presentation @ Cinefest, Sudbury International Film Festival

Documentary director Bryan Friedman is trying to get to know his long-estranged father. But it's not easy to connect with 59-year-old Bill Friedman as he pumps iron, tans and watches his weight – all in preparation for a final shot at winning back the senior bodybuilding title he once held.
