A Garifuna language teacher, Ricardo, struggles to preserve his endangered Afro-Amerindian culture by building a language school back in his home village in Honduras, Central America. A business venture with his brother designed to raise money for the school’s construction becomes complicated by the expansion plans of a nearby tourist resort into indigenous territory. Historical parallels are invoked as Ricardo’s son rehearses a stage play about the Garifuna people’s last stand against British colonialism over 200 years ago in their motherland, the island of St. Vincent in the Caribbean.

I don't speak or understand the language of the Garinagu but know of it's importance, this film does well in telling the story of the people today, their struggles and also the slow drift from the community that has happened over time. I thoroughly enjoyed the plot and the acting, my only complaint would be the subtitles were sometimes far to fast, but that doesn't take away from the film itself. Well done those who put this together, I hope there will be a follow up in the future.

I love this movie, I seen it at its premise in Manhattan, New York!!!
