Flyer Boys is the story of a Ukrainian grandfather and his Canadian-born grandson who find themselves at both generational and cultural odds as they spend long summer days working together delivering flyers door-to-door, weaving through the streets of Toronto. Overcoming tensions, both come to better understand each other’s values and appreciate their commonalities. A heartwarming story of compromise and love.
