Filmmaker Simonee Chichester investigates the life of her homeless father, Edgar Chichester, who abandoned her at the age of six. Twenty-three years later, during the summer of 2003, Simonee got a call from Foreign Affairs in Canada informing her that her father had a severe, possibly fatal case of tuberculosis. Simonee journeys to the streets of Guyana and Brazil to find and reunite with her father in the hopes of forgiving and understanding him while coming to terms with who she is. It is a raw and personal coming of age film that touches on the universal issues of homelessness, alcoholism and abandonment. Her father, Edgar Chichester, was now living on the streets of São Paulo.
