About the film:



Only an hour south of Miami, the elected president of the Western Hemisphere's 
poorest nation, Jean Bertrand Aristide, has twice been forced from office with 
the complicity of the international community. An intelligent and engrossing 
examination of the oft-suppressed story of the 2004 coup d'etat in Haiti, 
Rossier's film investigates the events that led to the second violent expulsion 
of Aristide from Haiti, and reveals the tangled web of hope, deceit, and 
political violence that has brought the world's first black republic to its 
knees.

An in-depth interview with Aristide (now in exile in South Africa) is 
juxtaposed with the views of a wide range of supporters and critics, including 
US Assistant Secretary of State Roger Noriega. A complex historical truth 
emerges as international interests concerned with suppressing popular democracy 
and ending Aristide's reforms co-mingle with embargos, debt service (for loans 
Haiti never received), systemic violence and human rights violations that 
erupted as the situation worsened.
