Short Film Review: JAMAICA STORY. Directed by Michael Campbell

Jamaica Story is a documentary made to inspire Jamaicans worldwide to invest their time as well as their money to help create a brighter and stronger Jamaica!

Review by Andie Karvelis:

Every country around the world has heard of Jamaica. For those of us not native to Jamaica, it means different things. A vacation paradise, great food, wonderful music, a culture thriving with friendly and laid back people. For those people who are from Jamaica, it’s home.


Mikey Campbell has created a documentary that is filled with love and determination. His idea to inspire Jamaicians worldwide to invest their time and money, not only preserve their culture but to help it grow is sensational. This small nation has such a wonderful sense of community and the interviews all reflect how much they love their homeland. It’s absolutely inspiring!


The cinematography and editing was done by a team lead by Banks, and they did fantastic. This film had a great pace and helped non-Jamaicians understand just how important it is to create more opportunities and preserve the culture of Jamaica for future generations.


Home is something precious to all of us and we all should rally around the places we call home to help them grow. Mikey Campbell, I can completely see why Jamaica is so important and this film is a wonderful call to arms for all of us.
