The story

The documentary describes the ascension of West Indies cricket from being a team largely composed of highly talented, entertaining, "Calypso Cricketers" to a determined unit that dominated world cricket for almost twenty years. It begins with an introduction to the West Indies Cricket Team, using interviews with West Indian cricketing greats, and other people closely associated with West Indies cricket. The idea of culturally and politically different Caribbean nations playing under the common banner of the West Indies is described.
