Synopsis

Asha, a teenage girl from a politically involved and influential family within Jamaica, enjoys a life far removed from the island’s harsh reality. Asha’s privileged bubble pops, however, when she and her driver come across the dead body of a local street cleaner. To her, the body represents a side of Jamaica that she only sees through the skewed lens of media. Slowly but surely, Asha’s world view begins to unwind as she is thrust into deep introspection.

Out of Many, screens as part of the shorts program, Short Fictions: Program 2, on Wednesday, June 30 at 4:00 pm.
