Clement Virgo and the Cast of 'Brother' Discuss Making One of the Best Films of TIFF 2022

There’s a number of special films celebrating world premieres at the 2022 Toronto International Film Festival, but one of the very best of the bunch is Clement Virgo’s latest, Brother.

The movie is based on the David Chariandy novel and stars Lamar Johnson as Michael and Aaron Pierre as his older brother, Francis. They’re sons of Caribbean immigrants growing up in Toronto trying to navigate family dynamics, find their place in their community, and also their personal truths and identities. However, those pursuits are rocked by a series of events that change their lives forever.

In celebration of Brother’s big debut at TIFF 2022, Virgo, Johnson, Pierre, Marsha Stephanie Blake who plays Michael and Francis’ mother, Ruth, and Kiana Madeira who steps in as Aisha, a young woman who grows up alongside the brothers, all swung by the Collider Supper Suite and Media Studio at Marbl to discuss how this gem of a film came together.
