Rezistans (1997)
Directed by Katherine Kean
Documentary, History · 2h 38m
This award-winning film chronicles the political events and human tragedy surrounding the 1991 military coup d état in Haiti and the bloody dictatorship that followed. It presents a searing indictment not only of the U.S. Central Intelligence Agency s role in the turmoil, but also that of the powerful and reclusive Haitian bourgeoisie. Unlike the mainstream media, REZISTANS does not portray the Haitian people as helpless victims. It focuses instead on their creative and courageous resistance, and the deep roots of that resistance in Haitian history and culture.
