Quote:
"Released to coincide with Windrush Day, this engaged drama-documentary [Hero] pays tribute to Ulric Cross, the Trinidadian who became the most decorated of the RAF's West Indian recruits during the second world war; he later became a producer-presenter with the BBC, then a go-between in several African countries' struggles against imperialism. From the off, writer-director Frances-Anne Solomon strikes a wistful note, wavering between celebration of an extraordinary existence and regret around the aims unachieved in that lifetime."
