Haiti, 1962. A man is brought back from the dead to work in the callous world of sugar cane plantations. Fifty-five years later, a Haitian-descent teenage girl tells her friends about her family secret, oblivious to the heavy consequences of this act. A contemporary horror film drawing from the very concrete reality of French colonialism in Haiti, its narrative acts as a trigger to reflect on racism, imperialism and cultural memory.
