My Baba's Kitchen

Have you ever wondered how your grandparents met? 

When Stephanie Turenko sat down with her grandmother to hear her life story, that was the one part she couldn't stop thinking about. Her grandparents arrived in Canada, both displaced persons, and fell in love under extraordinary circumstances. 

Stephanie decided to make a short animated film about their story. The film will take place in both the past and present as a conversation between a grandmother and her curious granddaughter. 

The film addresses the idea of how culture really connects us, whether it be finding a soul-mate or accepting your grandparents. 

Stephanie's grandmother is 85 and she want her desperately to see this film about a small, truly beautiful moment in her life.

Stephanie needs your help to make this all happen! Support her in creating this film about family history and connections we make through culture, music and food. 

She's using RocketHub, which is a crowdfunding website - it is not an investment or charity. It is an exchange: funds from you FOR rewards from her. You give and get something in return :)
