Martinique is a Caribbean island known as the "Island of Flowers." The picture-postcard beaches are beautiful, lined with swaying coconut trees, parasols, and palm huts. The brightly colored images change moods as they move to lonely islands at sea, motorcycles on dark roads, and smoke-filled landscapes. Seven young people play, joke, and have private conversations in this historic 17th-century French colony. In a languid tranquility, the jokes without pretense gradually become a commentary on the colonial legacy, the relationship with France, and socio-political subordination. The scripted story is combined with improvisations by non-professional locals.
