Life is real in Ghosts of Cite Soleil

Ghosts of Cite Soleil

Directors: Milos Loncarvic and Asger Leth

Cast: Winston ‘2pac’ Jean, Wyclef Jean, James Petit Frere

Cert: 15

Proof that a well-made documentary can convey heaps more than a contrived fiction … this harrowing film takes us into the heart of darkness that is a shanty section of Port Au Prince.

Where life is cheap and all too short, where evil struts its macho swagger, where dreams aren’t worth having.

It’s a frightening, but compelling, example of reality filming for which we should be grateful.

Star Rating: 5/5
