Lies My Father Told Me is the iconic Montreal story of a loving relationship between a six-year-old boy, David, and his peddler grandfather, Zaida. Every Sunday their bond grows stronger as they travel the city’s back alleys together selling their wares, Zaida teaching David about life and all its wonders. But one day, David wakes for his weekly excursion with Zaida only to learn from his father that Zaida has gone, never to return …a “lie” the young boy can never forgive.
