After five years of creating compelling re-enactments and collecting archival film and photos as well as contemporary images and interviews, the filmmaker tells a larger, poignant story of strength, endurance and sacrifice and uncovers troubling issues of race and oppression that faced the West Indians who worked under a Jim Crow system of discrimination on the Canal Zone and the descendants of those Canal workers in Panama, the West Indies, the US and Cuba today. The film also explores issues of race, class and power facing their descendants up to the present day. See less
