Synopsis

The chaos and confusion of Pearson's arrivals lounge. Hundreds pass through its doors each day. A young boy steps off a plane not speaking a word of English. An immigrant. A refugee. Alone and without identification. Deposited in an antiseptic waiting room for hours until someone can figure out his story.

But a child's curiosity gets the best of him, and when a door is left carlessley ajar he's gone. Another turn and he's swallowed up by a tour group going downtown. Hours pass before his absence is noticed. Then suddenly alerts are issued. TV news crews launch live remotes. Search teams fan out. A child has gone missing in the city.

Toronto Stories is a feature film comprised of the four stories that a nameless boy witnesses in the course of a single day on the city streets of Toronto -- and how, in the end, each of those stories comes to be connected.
