Review of Ghosts of Cité Soleil (2006) by Gordon A — 06 Apr 2008
An eye-opening, somewhat depressing documentary that for the most part succeeds in drawing the viewer into the world of the Haitian slums. The two gangleaders are incredibly compelling characters, and their love triangle with a UN aid worker is subtle, yet affecting.
There are no easy answers regarding the situation in Haiti, but Ghosts goes a long way towards at least attempting to explain the factors that lead to such societal violence.
