CHICAGO – Patrick McDonald of HollywoodChicago.com audio film review for “Daruma,” a new film about healing and forgiveness featuring disability advocates and actors Tobias Forrest and John W. Lawson. In select theaters since November 15th and available for digital download on Apple TV+ and Prime Video.

Patrick (Tobias Forrest) is an aimless military veteran, living off a disability pension with no direction toward the future. Everything changes when he learns he has a daughter named Camilla (Victoria Scott), and her mother has just died, leaving Patrick an insurance stake to care for his child. The unprepared and reluctant parent takes her in, but the fit isn’t working. Desperate, he asks an estranged and angry neighbor Robert (John Lawson) to transport them to Camilla’s grandparents, and the road trip becomes the metaphor for establishing some new goals.
