tl;dr:

We were approached to document emerging artist, Jimy Powers' upcoming album, and upon listening to it, we turned it into a community project championing Scarborough. The final product was screened at the Grand Gerrard Theatre, selling over 200 tickets.

“Wildlife” follows rapper, Jimy Powers as he navigates life as an artist from Scarborough. Displaced from the Downtown Core, the documentary illustrates the systemic challenges that obstruct and deter aspiring creatives from their destinations. Despite the connotations that surround Scarborough and its residents, “Wildlife” addresses our old ways and points a spotlight on new beginnings.
