Haitian-born director Raoul Peck takes us to his homeland during the 1960s, a time of political repression and economic turmoil under the François Duvalier (Papa Doc) dictatorship. We see the country through the eyes of Sarah, who looks back on her life as a young girl living in a small town dominated by the Duvalier thugs known as the tonton macoutes. Unable to physically escape, she retreats into an imaginary world filled with mysteries and rituals. The film's imagery is exquisite, capturing the warmth and color of a Caribbean isle, yet it also exudes the ever-present fear and claustrophobia that pervade authoritarian societies.-Cornelius Moore, San Francisco Int'l Film Festival '94We present two more films by Raoul Peck on November 21.
