Short documentary in Jamaican about writer, poet, and Edinburgh resident Martin MacIntyre, narrated by Audrey West. Part of the CIALL-supported Island Voices "Extensions" initiative. (NB The YouTube subtitling function does not yet recognise Jamaican, so the subtitles here, while conforming with the approved Cassidy-JLU orthography for the Jamaican language, are filed under the title "English".)

This film contributes to a small collection which forms one part of an extension series of the Island Voices project, in which its "capture and curation" model is used for more languages in addition to English and Gaelic.
