It's Jamaica 1980, and violence from a bloody general election has spread across the island like wildfire. When Tafari-a poor seventeen-year-old, one-legged Rastafarian boy-and a nineteen-year-old white Catholic girl meet and fall for each other, the boy's die-hard Rastafarian father immediately disapproves of the friendship-the same for the girl's dad. To show those around them that love has no rules, both teenagers must stand up against racial discrimination, religious discrimination, envy, and a deadly wave of political violence that's closing in on their rural community. Will the love that they have for each other survive, or will their love surrender to hate?
