what does family mean to you?

Seeking solitude after a personal tragedy upends his world, artist Chris travels to his mother's homeland, Jamaica, in a bid to find peace.
He expects to spend his time painting alone, coming to terms with his loss and the fractured relationship with his father.
Instead, he discovers a new extended 'family', a community of his very own. Can they help him to become whole again?
