Film: BROTHER

Adapted from David Chariandy’s award-winning novel of the same name, Brother follows Francis and Michael, inseparable brothers facing questions of masculinity, family, race, and identity during the pulsing beats of Toronto’s early hip-hop scene. Told largely in flashbacks, Brother marks the return to screen for director Clement Virgo, who was born in Jamaica and raised in Toronto and called upon his personal experience to bring this story of loss, love, healing, and grief to life
