Shakespeare’s romantic comedy is re-told in the Caribbean and brought into the 21st Century when Theseus and Hippolyta, returning Nationals, come home to Barbados to be married during Crop Over festival time. The island’s early history, folklore, culture and stunning landscape, lends itself perfectly for the mysticism, comedy and chaos that ensues, the night before the nuptual celebrations.

Nach ihrem langen Gefängnisaufenthalt versucht Wanja alle Fallen zu umgehen, die sie zurück in die Suchtgefahr und in zwielichtige Kreise bringen könnten.

Bei ihrer Arbeit auf der Trabrennbahn, wo sie für die Pflege der Pferde zuständig ist, lernt sie die 16-jährige Emma kennen. Bald empfindet Wanja Zuneigung zu Emma, dieser aufgewühlten Jugendlichen, in der sie sich selbst wiedererkennt. Doch Emma nimmt harte Drogen, und die üben auf Wanja einen gefährlichen Reiz aus. Unausweichlich steuert Wanja auf den Absturz zu, den sie vermeiden wollte.
