BROTHER

Feature Drama, 2022

SYNOPSIS

Propelled by the pulsing beats of Toronto’s early hip hop scene, BROTHER is the story of FRANCIS and MICHAEL, sons of Caribbean immigrants maturing into young men in a housing project called The Park. The brothers’ bright hopes are thwarted during the summer of 1991, when escalating tensions set off a series of events that change the course of their lives forever. Based on David Chariandy’s celebrated novel, BROTHER crafts a timely story about the profound bond between brothers, the resilience of a community and the irrepressible power of music.
