Description

Eddie Wade has recently returned from the US oilfields and is determined to make his fortune in 1920s Trinidad. He sets his sights on Sonny Chatterjee's failing cocoa estate, Kushi, where the ground is rich with oil. A fortuitous meeting with businessman Tito Fernandez brings Eddie the investor he desperately needs, and the three men enter into a partnership that will change their lives forever. As they work together to extract the oil, they must navigate their growing feelings for each other, particularly between Eddie and Tito's beautiful wife Ada. Based on true events, Fortune explores the consequences of ambition and desire in a moment of historical change. The story is set against the backdrop of Trinidad's oil rush and its lasting impact on the environment.
