<br/><br/> The Struggle For Survival retells the story of the tragic 1993 banana strike that culminated in the death of two farmers. However, by going beyond the tragedy and delving into the island's history, politics, economics and culture, farmers struggle against droughts, hurricanes, falling prices, corrupt institutions, and multinational corporations is seen as a microcosm of the struggles of a people against slavery, colonization, imperialism, and natural calamities. As such, The Struggle For Survival is nothing less than a story about the birth of a nation, and by depiction the birth of West Indian Civilization.
