Its residents deal with pollution, poverty, and the legacy of racismand strange and magical things are happening: children rule over their own kingdom in the trees and burned houses regenerate themselves. When Gloria arrives looking for answers and her missing granddaughters, at first she finds only a hungry mouse in the derelict home where her daughter was murdered. But the neighbours take pity on her and she turns to their resilience and impressive gardens for sustenance.When a strange intuition sends Gloria into the woods of Parc Rouge, where the citys orphaned and abandoned children are rumored to have created their own society, she cant imagine the strength she will find. A richly imagined story of community and a plea for persistence in the face of our uncertain future, The Future is a lyrical testament to the power we hold to protect the people and places we lovetogether.
