Synopsis of Pequeña isla
En el invierno de 1948, Hortense, una joven maestra jamaicana, llega a Southampton para reunirse con Gilbert, su esposo, también de Jamaica. Gilbert, veterano de la RAF, aspira a estudiar Derecho. Ambos comparten el sueño de una vida mejor en Londres, lejos de su 'pequeña isla'. En la capital, alquilan una habitación en casa de Queenie, quien, al igual que Hortense, buscó escapar de su vida anterior a través del matrimonio. Queenie, cuyo marido Bernard, combatiente en la India, desapareció misteriosamente, sobrevive alquilando habitaciones en su hogar en Earls Court. A medida que la guerra llega a su fin, todos se enfrentan a las duras batallas de la vida cotidiana. Gilbert se resigna a trabajar en Correos, Hortense descubre que es una inmigrante que no puede ejercer como maestra, y Bernard, al regresar, se encuentra viviendo en una pensión para personas de color. 'Pequeña isla' es una conmovedora exploración de los sueños, las desilusiones y los desafíos que enfrentan los inmigrantes en la Inglaterra de la posguerra.
