Doll House

Doll House has a simple premise but its execution is shaky, at best. This morally ambiguous tale takes us into the mind of a troubled and flawed father who ...

Doll House isn’t a bad film per-se and the star of the show is certainly little Yumi. When Rustin shows up, he adopts a fake persona under the name of Clyde in an effort to get to know his daughter, Yumi. With Rachelle off on a work trip and poor Bok duped by this man, when the truth is inevitably unveiled, chaos ensues. Performing in a rock band, Rustin works hard and plays hard in equal measure, with a steady cocktail of alcohol and drugs to keep him going. The story begins with a glimmer of the future, with a young woman arriving at a nursing home to find her father the worse for wear. Well, only his estranged daughter Yumi who he decided to abandon while his wife Sheena was pregnant to pursue a life of playing rock music.

Doll House is a Netflix film where Rustin, a drug addict, tries to rekindle his daughter who he left behind in Rotterdam. Shortcomings of the past create.

In the end, when she takes him back to his room, she sees a plethora of dollhouses that her father had made for her. Rustin returns to the Philippines and gets into rehab. Rustin realises they are late and they run to the venue. In a conversation with his father, Rustin admits to having been a horrible son, brother and husband. Rachelle and Bok arrive the next day at the place where Yumi’s auditions were to be held. After this brief conversation, he goes back to Yumi who he brought him to the cafe. He leaves the place and sits on a bench in the street drunk. Rustin promises to give it to the little girl only after he finishes it. After going back to the apartment, he takes a walk on the street which reminds him of the time he proposed to Sheena. The movie travels back in time to a scene wherein Rustin and Diego, two members of a rock band are seen conversing. After agreeing to it, Rustin goes to meet Jack, the band owner who approached him earlier. Bok invites Rustin (calling him Clyde) inside where the latter stays quiet about the fact that he is, in fact, Yumi’s father who abandoned her and Sheena.

The film takes us through the story of Rustin, a musician who is also a drug addict trying to change his life for good. He left his wife and child years ago and ...

Someone who loves an endearing movie will be able to watch Doll House with very much ease and love. The film starts with the present and then takes us back to the past which sort of gives us an idea about how the movie might end. He left his wife and child years ago and now decides to reconcile with them or at least learn about them and what he has been missing.
