Kombit

2015 · 64 min

A slow, sobering immersion into a devastated landscape, equal parts elegy and indictment, that asks for patience and leaves a heavy, lingering unease.

Directed by
Aníbal Garisto
Starring
Cebe Augustin, Camile Chambers, Denise Domique
Overview
From a rural community with goals that seem utopian in that context, Garisto goes through a dystopian universe: today's Haiti, destroyed by both nature (the terrible 2010 earthquake) and man (governments and the presence of Minustah, the UN's armed forces that occupy the territory).
