Review of Roma and Son
Kerry Seed

Producer Hillary Frank guides listeners through a book published by Thomas Roma, an adult father photographer, and Giancarlo Roma, his young writer of a son. Simple music illustrates this examination of the fleeting relationship between fathers and sons. The editing style straddles the characteristics of a narrated feature and large chunks of straight interview to create an intimate window on creativity within families. A short and simple piece that took me to a contemplative corner of my mind. PDs beware that Studio 360's Kurt Anderson reads an intro.
