Overview
Cananga is a short documentary that explores how my grandfather's backyard became a personification of his life as a man of the sea and a reflection of his persona. Guided by the ballads by him composed, we discover not only his musical ability, but also the deep emocional connections that link the family to history, music and life at sea.
