2hrs 30mins (including 20 mins interval) - Written by Martina Laird - Diamond is on the run from his life in a post war Trinidad. In the pursuit of the mother who abandoned him, he finds himself trapped between desire and political entanglement. The turns in his small-time con act echo the developments in the nation’s colonial legacy. His own challenges for self-determination are set against the British colony’s struggle to free itself from Empire and move towards Independence.
