Juicy tomatoes ripened in a garden tended by a woman who didn't even like them-planted year after year out of love, duty, and tradition. As the seasons turn and family rituals fade, the film captures the bittersweet beauty of what is remembered, and what is lost. Blending cutting-edge AI, 3D animation, and photogrammetry, Nonna's Seeds transforms fragments of the past into a living, breathing world. Directed by Patricia Marcoccia and technically led by Maziar Ghaderi, the film is a poetic meditation on ancestral memory, cultural continuity, and the quiet sacrifices of those who came before us. Funded by the Canadian Media Fund, Nonna's Seeds is a visually stunning, emotionally resonant journey into heritage, change, and the places we carry within us.
