SYNOPSIS

In the underground spaces of Toronto, a group of poets, rappers, singers and musicians negotiate their status as second-generation Torontonians as well as settlers living on borrowed indigenous land. Operatic in nature, this experimental documentary looks at rhythm and poetry as forms of creative labour that constitute mixed-cultural dialogue.
