Flashpoint opens today
There will no doubt be a reflective, if not sombre mood pervading at the Caves in Negril as the Flashpoint Film Festival opens today. News that Jamaican film pioneer and director of the classic The Harder They Come, Perry Henzell died yesterday will no doubt hit hard, and will be more poignant given that the director’s ‘new’ film, No Place Like Home, long in the works (and nearly lost to posterity) will have its Jamaican premiere at the event.
