Diary of a Father (French: Journal d'un père) is a Canadian documentary film, directed by Claude Demers and released in 2024. The film is a personal essay about fatherhood, reflecting on how his childhood as an adoptee who never knew his biological father has impacted his contemporary experience as father to a daughter he cannot see as often as he might wish because she lives with her mother in another country.
The film premiered at the 2023 Montreal International Documentary Festival, before going into commercial release in 2024.
