David's two teenage sons won't do their homework and don't like the bolognaise sauce he has cooked, his bicycle tyre is flat, the current subject of romantic interest hasn't phoned back and a school pullover has been lost. This is on top of his demanding boss, the nagging apparition of his children's late mother, and a counsellor who wants to challenge his negative emotions. Sometimes, David is too down to bother being depressed. Bloke Raising Boys is a telling look at fatherhood and the difficulties faced in juggling home, family, work and the ghosts in our lives, whilst trying to find our own sense of contentment.
