Jim Jarmusch’s ‘Father, Mother, Sister, Brother’ To Premiere At Cannes.

Filming began for Jim Jarmusch’s new triptych project ‘Father, Mother, Sister, Brother’ in November 2023. The film stars Adam Driver, Cate Blanchett, Vicky Krieps, Tom Waits, Charlotte Rampling and Mayim Bialik.

In a recent interview with France Inter, Jarmusch said that the film will premiere at next year’s Cannes Film Festival, or at the very least it’s been submitted. That shouldn’t come as a surprise, given that Jarmusch has premiered four out of his five films at the festival, and even opened the fest in 2019 with ‘The Dead Don’t Die”.

‘Father, Mother, Sister Brother’ is being described as a “triptych” following three separate stories set in different countries and revolving around relationships between adults, children and their somewhat distant parents and each other. The first part, “Father” is set in the east coast in Northeastern U.S., “Mother” is in Dublin and “Sister, Brother” in Paris.

The film wrapped production in June, and completed post-production in the following months. This is set to be Jarmusch’s first film in over five years. Some of the Ohio-born indie filmmaker’s best films are; “Paterson”, “Only Lovers Left Alive”, “Stranger Than Paradise”, “Down By Law” and “Ghost Dog: The Way of the Samurai”. His minimalist, unhurried and idiosyncratic films don’t follow the traditional narrative structures, but rather tend to focus more on mood.
