Catalysta

CatalystaT0736351843
Catalysta (Cat), who lives in London, visits Grenada several months after hurricane IVAN devastated the Island. She is concerned about her retired sister, Eartha and her ailing husband, who lets part of their home to their daughter, husband and twelve year old child. There's discontent and tension as their cheating, parasitic son-in-law sets up his wife against her vulnerable parents. Eartha, strong but soft, tries to avoid unpleasantness and confrontation. Everyone bottles up emotions and like a volcano is about to erupt. Catalysta challenges and cleverly exposes a few dark areas by telling stories from the past, but is it too late?
