What was life like in Trinidad and Tobago before the war? Many stories are stored in the memories of the elderly and they will soon be lost as people over 80 years of age pass away. This documentary follows the lives of six senior citizens of Trinidad and Tobago, ranging in age from 80 to 110.
Claire Ince-Nicholson July 23, 1937
Howard Nicholson 1932 - 2021
Overand Padmore 1932
Fitzroy Ethelbert Thomas April 22, 1922 - 2019
Safferan Balkaransingh 1929 - 2020
Vivienne Reece 1907 - 2018

They spoke about their modest family lives and their desire to succeed in noble careers. Vivienne Reece at 110 was probably the oldest citizen in Trinidad and Tobago. She entertains with many stories of dressing up and going to work for $1 a week and showing us how to “dance de cocoa”. Our over 80s give us their perspective of modern day Trinidad and look back with nostalgia on the good old days
