Rico (played by Rayan Dieudonné) and his mother, Erzulie (played by Penande Estime), talk next to a window.

Winner of TIFF's 2023 Amplify Voices Award, Kanaval tells the story of Rico, a young boy who was brutally torn, along with his mother, from their native Haiti and relocated to Quebec in 1975. To mend a fractured relationship with his mother, Rico must come to understand the strange customs of his new world with the help of an imaginary friend, Kana, who emerges from Haitian mythology.
