Here is the announcement:
Haiti: Unfinished Country
A film by Whitney Dow, Daniel Morel and Jane Regan
UNFINISHED COUNTRY, premiering Tuesday, September 6 at 9 pm on the PBS
series Wide Angle, examines Haiti?s struggle to create democracy. As the
western
hemisphere?s poorest country tries to organize for November presidential
elections, hardened veterans of its endless cycle of uprisings and downfalls
are
trading guns for voter registration cards, warily giving the election process
their
support. But not everyone agrees, and the country?s apathy, protests and
violence
put the entire process at risk. Through unfettered access to reformed
gangsters,
presidential hopefuls, election workers, and potential voters, this co-
production by
Haiti?s Wozo Productions (http://www.wozoproductions.org) and New York?s Two
Tone Productions reveals life on the streets, in the mountains and among its
power
brokers as the country attempts to fashion a true representative government
out of
a volatile failed state. Featuring music from innovative Haitian groups
Freedom and
Masters.
Tuesday, September 6 at 9 p.m. on PBS
