The Other Side of Carnival is a 48-minute documentary that looks at the origins of Carnival and the ways the event affects
the social and economic aspects in Trinidad & Tobago. Interviews with over 60 people--from economists, historians,
nurses, police officers, students, business owners, revellers- build a picture of what Trinbagonians say are the positives
and negatives of the event on their country.
Consummating from over two
years of research and interviews and with the coordination of a multi-national crew (Trinidad & Tobago, US and UK), The
Other Side of Carnival does not pass judgment on Carnival in Trinidad & Tobago, but aims to bring an awareness of
the type of influence that Carnival has on the population
The Other Side of Carnival will be aired exclusively on Gayelle The Channel at 8:00pm
on February 11th and repeated on Saturday afternoon at 2:00, Sunday at 1:00 pm and Carnival Monday at 1:30pm.
