Synopsis

Three Caribbean siblings are reunited by the death of their eldest brother, one of the first fatalities from a mystery illness sweeping their island. Marooned on the family’s coastal estate for a period of isolation, they begin talking after years of silence.

A tender ode to the radio plays of the director’s childhood in the Caribbean of the 1970s.
