Project Papa premieres this saturday at WOFFProject Papa-Synopsis : Alisa and Papa, both striking reflections of each other, are at vastly different phases of their lives and are miles away from the people they used to be. Alisa, the 29-year-old daughter, at the upswing of her career, is stressed out, overworked, under slept and believes that happiness is a thing of the future. On the other hand, 64-year old Papa, on the verge of retirement, with suddenly nothing much to look forward to believes that happiness is a thing of the past. Driven into a state of panic about how quickly her father is growing older, and slowly fading away from the man he used to be, Alisa, puts her life on hold, and along with her best friend, they embark upon Project Papa- her quest to fix him and give back what he gave her in abundance- love, memories and time.
