Lights, camera, action. While these words are commonly associated with Hollywood, film students at the University of the West Indies (UWI) are no strangers to this process of filmmaking and producing high-quality content for the big and small screens. Last month, local film and art enthusiasts gathered for a screening by the UWI Film Department that featured students’ works from the past academic year. The event is part of the department’s annual tradition to highlight the creative efforts of graduating students who have honed their skills while pursuing a Bachelor of Arts degree in film, the first of its kind at the university and in the Caribbean.

Barbara Alleyne’s love affair with English literature began at the University of York, where the medieval allure of the city and the atmospheric Tudor rooms at King’s Manor set the stage for her literature studies. Immersed in the intricate tales of “The Romance of the Rose” and “The Allegory of Love”, Alleyne developed a fascination with medieval literature that would shape her future writing career. After graduating, Alleyne shifted her focus to psychotherapy, training in London, and working in bustling general practices across south and east London.
