“Trinidad and Tobago has a historical love affair with the cinematic experience and in thinking about a post Covid on-screen media world, the intention is to encourage persons from all communities to tell their stories so that we can collectively be inclusive.
"By combining film, fashion, music, animation and theatre, filmmakers can engage the world and reignite a demand across all visual platforms. There is marketability in our indigenous stories and stories imbued with Caribbean products, culture and intoxicating landscapes will act as a unique selling point adding to our screen tourism."
