When a prostitute is beaten on a Caribbean Island,
no one realizes that this seemingly minor event
will light a fuse to blow apart the old, corrupt social
order. Pursuing healing for the wounded young woman
and for other poor workers, members of the community
become targets of ruthless entrepreneurs planning to reap big profits while despoiling the island’s rich environment.
MEET: Monica, a prostitute by choice, controls every aspect of her life and her bordello, until her world crumbles.
Rosie, an American professor and healer, must forsake her roles of teacher and wife as she faces her husband’s involvement in the schemes.

Abuelita and Don Tuto, leaders of the island outcasts who live in the darkness of its vast cave system and underground river, guide the way toward a new relationship with the land
