In 1838, the first set of indentured immigrants landed in what was then British Guiana as British colonialists sought to meet the labour shortages on the plantations after slavery ended. The Indians introduced their rich cultural heritage to the colony, and those evolved over time and were passed down to generations before and after the country gained independence in 1966 and became the new nation of Guyana. This documentary film delves into the heart of enduring customs, following a modern Guyanese Hindu Wedding from the colourful beginnings to its joyous conclusion. Witness the intricate ceremonies, each with deep meaning, and the infectious revelry. Discover how regional variations and ancestral traditions have been passed down and interwoven with Guyanese culture, creating a unique and vibrant expression of faith and celebration.
