Welcome

Directed by Daniel Gerson

Logline: Welcome is a starkly honest look at a lonely boy's travels along broken streets riddled with addiction.

Synopsis: Scuttling through the decrepit and impoverished city streets that comprise his only playground, a young boy lives in social peril. The stark, vérité, imagery reveals the alienating effects of urban neglect; places where nature has started to reclaim what society has squandered. Welcome was filmed on location in Winnipeg's crumbling and disenfranchised Chinatown district.
