1. Reproduction
A chance meeting between two young people in a hospital, where their mothers share a room, leads to a brief affair and an unexpected child, and over the years an unconventional, patchwork family forms in the Toronto suburbs. Through witty, formally inventive storytelling, it follows evolving bonds among parents, children, partners, and friends, exploring how chance, caregiving, race, class, and migration pressures shape and test what it means to belong to one another.
