- Summary
- "Four different love affairs simultaneously wreak havoc in the lives of the inhabitants of a tropical paradise.

At the same time, his sister-in-law is drawn to his enemy, a dedicated black labor leader, and a governor's aide is torn over his scandalous affair with a native woman. Set during the 1950s on a British-ruled Caribbean island, this drama deals with local politics, interracial relationships, social inequality, racism, adultery, and murder."--IMDb
