Dhani, a vendor of the popular Trinidadian street food doubles, is struggling along with his mother to make ends meet. After their doubles stand is robbed, Dhani decides to fly to Toronto and confront his estranged father, Ragbir, a man of reputed wealth who Dhani blames for his and his mother’s plight back home. The reality Dhani encounters in Canada, however, upends all his expectations, and resets both his relationship with Ragbir and his ideas about the immigrant dream.
A Q+A with Ian Harnarine will follow the screening.
