The story of how Twain Richardson came to be the co-founder of  Frame of Reference Production Company, the only post-production company in the English-speaking Caribbean epitomizes so many things about the Jamaican spirit. Immeasurable drive in the face of brokeness, tough headed go-get-it-ness, nough-an-inna-everything-ness, kicking ass in spaces we don't belong-ness. This is going to sound extremely cliché but likkle but tallawah is an apt description for him and the company he has built.
