Synopsis : Five months before the terrible earthquake that devastated Port au Prince and its region, on January 12, 2010, Evelyne Garcia Jousset shot a documentary on the feeling of inner exile, an all too faithful companion of an already chaotic life. To live meant to survive, and if hope existed, it was very quickly stifled by the unbearable everyday life. This journey into Haitian society now bears witness to history.
