    From Cherry English is a surrealist Mi'gMac allegory about the loss of language and identity to the anonymity of urban wasteland. Traylor, a Mi'gMac man being pulled between two worlds meets a non-native woman who sends him on a hallucinogenic journey of masochism, and self discovery. The film explores the relationship that Traylor has with his language, culture, and past.
