Trivia, insights & behind the scenes
Director Frances-Anne Solomon is Cross's great-niece; she spent 15 years financing this after UK broadcasters rejected it for being 'too niche.'
Joseph Marcell plays C.L.R. James — the real James actually mentored Cross in 1930s Trinidad, making this a layered full-circle moment.
