Summary:

Five original films, set between 1969 and 1982, celebrate the courage and solidarity of London's West Indian community. From a group of activists taking on a seemingly hopeless battle against police persecution, to a teenager experiencing a blues party full of dance, danger and romance, they're a powerful reminder of how brave individuals can spark change.
