The inhabitants of Trinidad live for the carnival. Once brought by the French, the tradition fills up the streets of Trinidad on Monday and Tuesday before Ash-Wednesday. Starting with the Soca Monarch show on Friday, the competition for the carnival song, to choose the best steel band on Saturday, the choice of the best costume of the king and queen masks on Dimanche Gras, Sunday, the street party J'ouvert in the night before Monday and the colorful parades on Monday and Tuesday, the Tradition of carnival is lived in Trinidad.
The documentation accompanies among others Brian Mac Farlane, a carneval designer, who is preparing with his band during the whole year for the shows on Carnival. This year his band prepares costumes relating to the clothes in the end of the 18th century. Concerning the colours everything is in gold and copper while the masquerade itself is the close to the historic archtype. His Motto in 2019 carries the name "Resurrection the Mas". The stilkwalker Seven Nicholls is the Queen of the Band
The King of the Band is wearing a Dragon Costume and will be accompanied by little devils. But also other carnival minded people like Mendell Manwarran, Artist, or Desmond Waithel, conductor of the Steelband "Redegades" explain the special role of carnival on Trinidad.

Caribbean Moments shows a different side to the Caribbean. Everyone visualises sand, sunshine and palm trees – but hardly anyone really discovers what lies behind them. In fact an unbelievable variety of cultures, music and religions has developed as a result of the different influences – African, Indian, English, French and authentically Caribbean.
This documentary series attempts to portray the people - be they the Rastas, who have a lot to say about their mission, the Amerindians in Trinidad, who still have their own Queen, or the Black Caribs – a mixture of escaped slaves and Caribs.
In addition, of course, there’s a huge variety of music: steelpan, parang, calypso, soca and chutney soca shape Trinidad, whilst other islands are especially scenically beautiful, such as Dominica, which is actually a single rain forest and which seduces with its abundant vegetation. Here too are the true Caribs, who occupy themselves with traditional boat building in the same way as their ancestors did centuries ago.
The films were produced in 6 parts to create a documentary series that shows what lies beneath the surface.
