Summary
Following a brief history of Haiti from Columbus onward, this short documentary recounts the goals and accomplishments of Jean Bertrand Aristide's Lavalas government. On September 29, 1992, 239 days into his new administration, Aristide was overthrown in a coup d'etat led by General Raoul Cedras. As Aristide speaks from exile about his hopes for Haiti's future, this film paints a dually promising and grim picture of this troubled Caribbean nation.
