| | Synopsis
|
"One sweltering summer in the Park, a housing complex outside of
Toronto, Michael and Francis are coming of age and learning to
stomach the careless prejudices and low expectations that confront
them as young men of black and brown ancestry. Their Trinidadian
single mother works double, sometimes triple, shifts so her boys
might fulfill the elusive promise of their adopted home. Francis
helps the days pass by inventing games and challenges, bringing
Michael to his crew's barbershop hangout, and leading escapes into
the cool air of the Rouge Valley, a scar of green wilderness where
they are free to imagine better lives for themselves"—Provided by
