It is set during the mid 1950's in his native Trinidad where black, white, and Indian people make up the multicultural melting pot of the island. The story is rooted primarily in the Indian community, and it deals with the thwarted ambitions, frustrations, and ultimate triumphs that are possible in this 'restricted' part of the world. It is a story that is marked by its humour, its pathos and its warmth. Filmed on location in Trinidad THE MYSTIC MASSEUR is directed by Ismail Merchant, produced by Nayeem Hafizka and Richard Hawley and executive produced by Paul Bradley. |
