UNFINISHED SENTENCES
In the wake of Trinidadian writer Wayne Brown's death in 2009, his filmmaker daughter Mariel examines his legacy and the nature of family, love, loss and art. In so doing, she learns that, through his writing, her father can transcend space and time to connect with her. Combining interviews with Caribbean writers Mervyn Morris and Rachel Manley, as well as close friends and family of Wayne Brown, with visually arresting reenactments shot on Super 8 film, UNFINISHED SENTENCES addresses the complexities of father-daughter relationships, the power of the bond of love and the gift of art and literature which, at its best, can connect across generations and help us make sense of our lives.
