A Story of Coincidence and Chance

Background facts: last film festival, I watched a film called Ghosts of Cité Soleil, which I felt was pretty one-sided in its criticism of Aristide. Kevin Pina has recently made a film called Haiti: We Must Kill The Bandits, which seems to take the "other perspective".

This blog entry by Michael Deibert offers a perspective on some of those figures. Deibert's opinions on the people involved seem more consistent with Ghosts (which he says he has not seen), but he writes persuasively. I find some of Deibert's other blog entries less compelling. Nonetheless, I've ordered a copy of his book.
