Torn between their obligations and personal histories, each man offers the other a chance to change ultimately, leading to an explosive and violent finale.
Dancehall Queen. In the gritty world of the Kingston ghetto there are few ways out. Fortunately, Marcia, a humble street vendor struggling to survive as a single mother, discovers the world of the dancehall. Through it she finds more than great music and hot relationships, she finds a way to a better life.
Countryman. By rescuing two Americans from a plane crash, Countryman, a lonely fisherman, becomes involved in a political plot devised by a power-hungry colonel.
