Haiti's cultural identity is a rich tapestry of ancient traditions, blending voodoo practices with Catholicism, against a backdrop of stark economic and social contrasts.

The film explores Haiti's complex cultural landscape, where modern and primitive, rich and poor, and black and white coexist. Despite the influence of the Catholic Church, many poor villagers continue to practice voodoo, a tradition that dates back to the 19th century.
