Mazibel is working with Leah Gordon, Eddie Hutton-Mills and Tigerlily Productions to produce, promote and deliver this brilliant documentary that has already drawn crowds and accolades in the UK, and is only beginning its world tour. Watch the trailer here. The film parallels Haiti's powerful Revolutionary History with the lives and work of artists and activists in Jacmel as they prepare for the Kanaval festival. It is a sensory work of art, and invites a deeper conversation about the nation of Haiti - the first free nation in the New World - its history, and its place on the world stage.
