Starring Xavier Alexander Keating, Tamara Lawrance, Clover Webb
“When we dream, we dream in patois.” Una (Clover Webb), a Jamaican woman living in 1980s London, reveals her feelings of alienation through a poetic, patois-inflected inner monologue (as voiced by Tamara Lawrance). As she takes a moment of solace to make the popular Caribbean dessert burnt milk, she is flooded with powerful sense memories that take her back home—visualized by director Joseph Douglas Elmhirst in an intoxicating head rush of ecstatically evocative, stream-of-consciousness imagery.
