Synopsis

Extending the forms of autobiography, Rhenisch explores the immigrant experience in the orchard gardens of the Okanogan. The search for paradise in the new land, its discovery and loss, are portrayed through the experiences of a young boy struggling against the authoritarianism of patriarchy.
