After the 2010 earthquake, the Toyota Land Cruiser (called “zo reken”, or “shark bone”, in Creole) has become a symbol of aid in Haiti. For the purpose of the film, one such car has been transformed into a mobile space for encounters and discussion among Haitians. The driver zigzags between barricades, potholes, and demonstrators. Its passengers discuss current problems – corruption, crime and neo-colonialism. Talk also turns to the work of humanitarian organisations, who on the one hand helped provide basic necessities, but also sowed enormous social and economic inequality. This film drive through Port-au-Prince is a comprehensive reflection about present-day Haiti. (One World)
