It was written and directed by Neal Kelley and Jono Sherman and is their feature debut film.
In a dystopian society where the state decides who is allowed to father children, a foursome of men gather at a government controlled retreat in the California mountains. There they must determine who among them can become fathers.
Paste magazine, "Daddy brands itself a sci-fi comedy, and is haltingly funny, in fits and starts," concluding, "Daddy is too milquetoast to memorably deliver its opinion."
