Descendents of shipwrecked African slaves who married into the indigenous Central American population, the Garifuna people have been struggling to retain their unique language, music, and traditions in the face of globalization. Blending rich vocal textures with echoes of rock, blues, funk, African, Latin and Caribbean music, Umalali is an entrancing journey into the heart and soul of Garifuna women whose strength, hard work, and perseverance provide the bedrock of their community.
