Zhang, like so many other Chinese immigrants in Quebec, runs neighbourhood corner store seven days a week. Over the years he works diligently in hopes of providing a scure future for his family in their adopted country. Quotidian pressures had lightened somewhat, until, suddenly, his resolve and the beginnings of hard-won security are challenged by reoccurring symptoms of lymphatic cancer. 'A Winter Song' looks into the achingly human story behind a typical Chinese-run depanneur in Montreal.
Inspired by a true story, with a cast of real corner store owners, written and directed by Aonan Yang.
