Maybe you’re the kind of person who likes film. The kind of person who goes to the cinema to see explosions and movie stars and CGI vampires, or people in fancy dresses, speaking expired English. Here’s an independent film with a micro-budget, zero vampires, no scripted drama, with no pretense to a box office taking. It’s free to see, and loaded with Caribbean culture, humour and great music.
Maybe you’re the kind of person who’ll enjoy this film.
Maybe...
