Marlon James’ Get Millie Black is a true original; a vivid, blistering slice of contemporary noir driven by a truly iconic woman, the formidable Millie-Jean Black (Tamara Lawrance). Millie-Jean returns to her roots from her troubled life in London to work missing persons cases for the Jamaican police force. She soon picks up the trail of an investigation that begins in the steaming streets of downtown Kingston, and works its way up to the hill plantations of the post-colonial elite. Events eventually explode onto the international stage, propelling Millie back to the UK, where pretty soon everyone is out to get Millie Black.
