"Omi, a young East Indian boy arrives in Ottawa to live with his uncle due to his mother's illness back home. He has no father, and unaware that his mother is likely to die, Omi believes that he is on a mission to find a hero, to take back to India to save her. He connects emotionally with Roland, the captain of a local tour boat who, in turn, begins a romance with Safia, Omi's feisty teenage cousin who is assigned to take care of him."--Container.
