For six months, a retired Wall Street banker (Richard Roe) and his filmmaker son (Chris Roe) travel the world collecting candid and touching stories from fathers and sons. Their journey pieces together a rich tapestry of tales as varied as the men they interview, and one, from Julian Lennon, includes a shocking revelation about his famous pop music father. But these fathers and sons serve as a heartwarming backdrop to the personal drama that unfolds between Richard and Chris, whose own relationship is put to the test.

The universal issue of father-son relationships is given a deeply compassionate treatment in this compelling documentary from Chris Roe. Focusing on a road trip between Roe and his father, Richard, the film also scans the globe to interview many more father and son pairs. The resulting insights into fatherhood are honest, heartfelt, humorous, and affecting. By the time the trip between Chris and Richard reaches its climax, POP & ME has taught everyone involved a valuable lesson about parent-child relations, audience members included.
