Fruit Is Ripe

Directed by Yuqi Kang

Cacai, a Chinese farmer-turned-internet influencer, has dedicated his life to building innovative passive solar greenhouses to withstand Alberta’s unforgiving climate. Inspired by his vision, a group of Chinese fathers joins him in pursuing sustainable farming, each bringing their hopes for the future. Over the course of a year, we meet their families, who are each as distinct as the vegetables they grow, with relationships that require just as much care and attention.
