REHAM, female, Syrian speaks Arabic concentrating on learning English. So much of Reham’s story is about the unique place this food establishment has occupied in the life of a new Canadian. Amongst the morning rush, there’s Reham, piecing together English phrases, beverage in hand. But there is something much larger at play, for Reham and every other customer in the story, this place offers a bit of sanctuary. A place to connect and to belong. REHAM shows strength, resilience and vulnerability.

BEN, elderly, can be female or male. BEN born and raised in his small east coast city. Early morning, enjoying his breakfast reading the paper, giving off a feeling of loneliness, weathered yet warm. Longing for connection in his smallest gestures. Shows care and tenderness to the recently immigrated REHAM.
