The film delves into the political struggles they face and focuses on the loss of their language and inability to use their land for economic development.\u00a0\u00a0The issues of the Kalinago were further juxtaposed against their recovery from Category 5 Hurricane Maria and the changes brought on by the COVID-19 pandemic.<\/p>\n<p style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The film also featured guest appearances by\u00a0Kalinago Chief Lorenzo Sanford and Hon.
