The Other Side, Rastaman Vibrations depicts the turbulence of Jamaican life in the 1960s-early ‘70s through the passions of 14 year-old Frances Ayee, daughter of Pastor George Ayee. Frances reflected everything that was good and pure in the world. Her love of life was as virtuous and genuine as the smile which she wore and it was as delicate as the flowers which she held. Vilified and forsaken, Frances is thrust into a world of confused voices and turbulent measures. She finds herself pitted against the moral code that is the church’s foundry. Upon giving birth to her son Julius, she is whisked off to New York city to live with her estranged aunt Beverley. Against a backdrop of the Diaspora and simmering civil unrest, young Julius is encouraged by Rasta as he wrestles with love, truth and life. What he learns surpasses human desire as he comes to a keen understanding of the hidden purpose of his own destiny.
