“Small Axe” is a series of five stories that shed light on the trials and tribulations of the West Indian community of London during the ‘60s, ‘70s,’ and ‘80s. “Lovers Rock,” for example, tells the story of young love and music at a blues party in the early 1980s. Whereas “Red, White and Blue” is a feature-length episode that follows a West Indian man in London that joins the police force after witnessing his father being assaulted by officers. Each episode shows a different side of the West Indian community’s struggles for decades, which is something McQueen is personally familiar with.” These, to me, feel like the no-brainers for NYFF:Ammonite.
