Haiti and the Dominican Republic share the island of Quisqueya, as well as a hidden genocide. In 1937, Dominican dictator Rafael Leonidas Trujillo ordered the massacre of over 20,000 Haitian immigrants living in the Dominican Republic. Daphné Ménard, a Haitian theatre director, brings together actors from both parts of the island to work on an unprecedented event, a creative project that demands people from both sides to summon up the darker realms of their histories.
A Q+A with Pierre Michel Jean will follow the screening.
