This documentary focuses on the 2005 St. Patrick's Day festivities of the Caribbean island of Montserrat. The project was conceived and executed by Director David William Seitz, with the help of producers Alexandra Klaren Seitz, Erik Churchill, and Burke Olsen. Chris Campbell of Innova Recordings edited the final piece in 2007.
That bit by that girl about "oppression" and the "white man" rather sticks in the craw a little bit. The United Kingdom came to the rescue of the Montserratians after the Soufriere Hills volcano and a third of the island's population were able to flee to the UK due to having British citizenship. Montserrat is largely dependent on UK aid; Britain is more or less keeping what's left of the island's economy afloat. So in that context the girl comes across as naïve and rather rather ungrateful.
