Description: In the midst of increasing political violence in their homeland, the lives of three pairs of Haitian refugees intersect in 1980s New York City. A haunted young woman (Patricia Rhinvil) struggling to forget the atrocities she's experienced reunites with her husband (Atibon) in Brooklyn, where he barely scrapes by as a livery cab driver. A single mother (Michele Marcelin) striving for assimilation in a tony Long Island suburb takes in her sister (Edwidge Danticat), a teacher and political activist who is unable to reconcile their violent youth with her sister's seemingly banal lifestyle. And a newly married man (Thierry Saintine), the host of a popular anti-government radio show, finds his estranged father (Carlo Mitton), a recently ousted military leader, on his doorstep, desperate for shelter. Now, they all must confront the disturbing truth of their interlocked lives.
