A portrait of Oumar, an auto mechanic from Burkina Faso, who has become a vital part of his community in Montreal’s Côte-des-Neiges neighbourhood. Although the focal point for others to gather and discuss everything from politics to religion to feminism and more, his life in Montreal does not meet the definition of success that is expected for those who leave Burkina Faso.
