about

To me, the countryman is sharing a deep knowledge of the importance of respecting nature. He's warning of the consequences of abandoning the people of The Look Behind, and instead choosing to support destructive bauxite mining practices.
Bauxite is a material used in space exploration.

''......sinkholes, cliffs that drop off, that you fall off and you die, and you are never seen again....''

This is a global warning to the human race.

District of the Look Behind is a mystical place, it is Jamaica's last remaining wilderness, better known as Cockpit Country.
It is one of the final places for the old-time culture of the Jamaican countryside, which is sadly disappearing in today’s modern world.
This rich heritage and natural history is kept alive today with the crafts, food, art, music and humanity of Cockpit Country’s residents.
If any more government support is given to the destructive bauxite mining interests, this district will be lost.
When all of the bauxite is taken from the forest, nothing will be left to support the future generations of the Cockpit Country.

This local story is a global warning!
