The void at the heart of an economically insecure family is laid bare when an analytical son helps his oblivious father stave off despair by competing in a bodybuilding competition. Grimly hilarious; My Father's Diet is an elegy for our outmoded conceptions of manhood; as well as a reckoning with a culture incapable of introspection.
