The course of true love can sometimes be explosive.
For more than twenty-five years Burt (Jeffery Kissoon), an elderly West Indian man has been married to Jean (Jennifer Guy), his Jewish wife. They love each other dearly but one day Jean suddenly falls seriously ill and Burt finds himself contemplating life without her. As Jeans health deteriorates Burt begins to re-evaluate his own life and the self-imposed parameters of his long marriage. Through his brooding alter ego he wonders whether marrying a Jewish woman may have caused him to suppress his African heritage and so begins to delve deeper and deeper into prevailing religious and cultural resentments. Burts schizophrenia becomes such that he decides to seek revenge against a society he accuses of robbing him of his dreams and we are left to consider what makes an ordinary man do the extraordinary?Ham & The Piper is a quirky and touching love story with a difference. Not only is it at times an examination of the love by an elderly couple assessing the compromises in marriage between two people from separate cultures, but it also serves as an allegorical exploration of how two cultures might somehow put aside historical and political difference to find ways to love each other.
