It's a sad reality that we often don't know our parents that well — whether through estrangement, geography or a simple inability to find common ground. Hopefully, we find some resolution before we lose them. But for Toronto-based filmmaker Qais Pasha, a greater understanding and compassion for his father came after his dad passed away. And much of that was based on the stash of 126 drawings that Pasha's father had in his apartment, hidden away, waiting for Pasha to find them as he sorted through the belongings left behind.

Finding those drawings transformed the way Pasha thought about his dad. In this moving video, Pasha finds a way for his father's drawings to escape the confines of his apartment and his difficult life. And if you go looking in the alleys and streets of Toronto today, you may still find them.
