Abandoned on the doorstep of a Montreal orphanage, Johanne Harrelle eventually rose to prominence as a gifted artist, actress, and one of North America's first Black models. Simply Johanne deftly explores her complex and audacious life through archival footage, interviews with loved ones and performances of her writings by three contemporary actresses. The film chronicles the journey of a magnetic and passionate woman who defied the expectations of her time.
Lidiia, a Ukrainian mother, and her young daughter, Solomiia, are on the road, in search for a ray of hope to send back to their home country, which they fled just 6 months ago, leaving behind Kiyv, the war, their husband and father Sasha, and most importantly Solomiia's toys.
