Event Description

Master filmmaker Raoul Peck’s Moloch Tropical brilliantly synthesises political analysis, Shakespearean drama and a certain Caribbean approach to tragedy. Claiming Alexander Sokurov's Moloch as his own, Peck takes us to a hilltop fortress in Haiti where we watch the nation’s President disintegrate before our eyes—destroyed by a combination of his own paranoia and an increasingly absurd political situation…

If Haiti is to chart a new course as it rebuilds from the devastating January 12, 2010 earthquake, addressing the political and human rights themes raised in this bracing film will be critical.
