In a context of political and social turmoil on a Caribbean island, we follow a group of comedy artists caught in a web full of tension and humor. The plot revolves around a pair of American comedians who arrive seeking fame and recognition in a country where stability is a luxury. Amidst the chaos, they confront the reality of life in a place where jokes can cost more than a laugh.
With a cast that combines comedic and dramatic talents, the protagonists—a cynical comic and a dreamy idealist—are forced to deal with the corrupt local bureaucracy, a charismatic yet volatile dictator, and their own personal traumas. As they strive to produce a show that could save their careers, they encounter a diverse array of local characters, each with their own stories and struggles.
As the story progresses, the comedians find themselves drawn into a world of espionage and resistance, where laughter becomes an act of bravery. Blending comedy and drama, the film offers a reflection on the power of art in the face of oppression. The mixture of humor and the profound emotional impact of the situations lead them to question their own identities and their roles in such a chaotic world. Ultimately, the struggle for freedom of expression and the power of laughter become the heart of this unforgettable journey.
