About

In 1802 a near forgotten rebellion unfolded on the tiny island of Guadeloupe in the French Caribbean. Freedom fighters, soldiers and civilians, took up arms against Napoleon's army in a desperate fight for liberty.

Among them was a small and peculiar woman. At times she was beautiful and at times she was terrifyingly ferocious. She danced into battle carrying her unborn child, laughing in the face of her own death. She was Solitude, and to this day her story remains a blend of history, myth and legend.
