The Dark Side of Man

The Dark Side of Man follows the Shell family – from the time of their bondage to an English master to their ruthless acquisition of wealth and influence. Doomed to slavery on the island of Barbados, a young Irishman makes a bold decision to flee the island accompanied by an African woman named Manuela. Through the years, a recurring dream is handed down from generation to generation: a dream whose origin lies in the hurricanes of the Caribbean.
