Synopsis

Once upon a time, on a little island in the Caribbean called the isle of Spice, there lived a little old lady way up in the mountains called Petite Mama. Petite Mama was a strong woman and owned lots of land filled with every tropical fruit you could think of, including her beloved Nutmeg Trees. Just past her trees was a bottomless lake in the middle of a volcano, where strange things started to happen.
