In one hour thirty, we travel from the 17th century to today. We discover how the capital of French St.Martin has evolved through time, uncovering the history of the whole island and painting the story of a typical Caribbean town: from dirt roads to asphalt, from donkeys and horses to cars, from wooden houses to concrete buildings.
