About A Grain of Sand
This is Brendon Grimshaw's love story with Moyenne Island. We decided to distribute it openly so that his story may be known to as many people as possible and so that we may thank him in our thoughts and in our hearts while he is still alive. Brendon has provided us with an example of why not all hope is loss in what at times seems an overwhelmingly mad world...
Directed by Joseph Richard Johnson Camí, A Grain of Sand leans on a strong ensemble — Brendon Grimshaw, James Michelle, Joel Morgan — to carry a story that balances spectacle with character.
The film landed with audiences for its craft and performances, and remains one of the most talked-about documentary titles of 2009.
