Zeller wrote a trilogy of plays "Mama. Dad. Son". in 2020 the playwright himself directed a motion picture based on the part of the trilogy "Daddy", in which the roles were created by Anthony Hopkins and Olivia Colman. The film received six Academy Award nominations, including Best Picture, and Zeller won the Academy Award for Best Screenplay. Dad has also been nominated for four Golden Globe Awards and six British Academy Awards. The dramatist's works have also received theater awards - both "Mama" and "Dad" were awarded the prestigious Moliere Award in France. F. Zeller's biography includes more than ten written plays.

The daily life of Anna, the main character of "Mama", is a cocktail of sleeping pills, diazepam and alcohol, with which she tries to push depression away, and home and family for which she has lived until now. But how can a mother come to terms with the fact that her children have already grown up and learn to live for themselves, take care of themselves, love themselves? the theme and the angle of this theme, when a woman must be good to another: she must be a good wife, a good mother, a good daughter, but she does not know and does not find time how and when to be good to herself. In this way, the mother treats her closest people as weaker than they really are, often even using harmful means in an attempt to control them, presenting it as nurturing and caring. No one ever taught or emphasized this to the mother - it is a rather deep psychological wound in our society, in the finale of which a person is left alone with himself and his pain, he does not know how to proceed.
