No one gives directions like a Trinidadian. Ask a Trini how to get to a certain place and if he doesn’t know the way, instead of admitting his ignorance, he’ll send you on a roundabout route guaranteed to get you hopelessly lost. In this short dramatization of that endearing, yet frustrating custom, a number of persons are asked to give directions to a well-known Port of Spain landmark, with unsurprisingly hilarious results. Part of the CaribbeanTales Collection.
