A personal tribute to the filmmaker’s grandfather, a first-generation immigrant to Canada from Jamaica in the 1950s. Through both digital and super 8mm found footage, Pappy’s past catches up with him as he struggles with difficult memories of his immigration to Canada, finding comfort in his spectacularly over-grown garden.
