Doc Watchers and Keeling's Caribbean Showcase Presents: Fire in Babylon
Stevan Riley, 2010, 83 min.
Throughout the Caribbean, one sport rules over all otherscricket. Comprised of players from 15 countries, the West Indies cricket team rose to preeminence throughout the 1970s despite civil unrest at home and racial prejudice abroad. When Clive Lloyd assumed the team's captaincy, he transformed a laughingstock into world champions. Fire in Babylon is the thrilling story of how the West Indies triumphed over their colonial masters through the achievements of one of the most gifted teams in sporting history.
