The Right and the Wrong is a 1970 Trinidadian drama film directed by Harbance Kumar, in which Trinidadian slaves revolt against their cruel white master. Along with The Caribbean Fox (also directed by Kumar), it was one of the first films natively produced not only in Trinidad and Tobago, but also the English-speaking West Indies. Despite mediocre reception, it was a hit in its native country and was screened in several other Caribbean nations.
