Que s'est-il réellement passé ce dimanche 29 février 2004 dans le palais présidentiel de Port-au-Prince à Haïti? Le président Jean-Bertrand Aristide a-t-il de lui-même choisi de s'exiler et de renoncer à son poste ou a-t-il été contraint et enlevé par les forces spéciales états-uniennes? L'affaire n'a jamais été vraiment élucidée. Nicolas Rossier tente avec ce film de renouer les fils de cette histoire complexe qui met aux prises les milieux financiers d'Haïtii, les rebelles infiltrés par la République dominicaine, le parti Lavalas, Washington et Paris et bien sûr Aristide lui -même, qui raconte sa version des faits.

Le fameux médecin Paul Farmer, l 'anthropologue Laennec Hurbon, la représentante de la Californie Maxine Waters, le sous-secrétaire d'État Roger Noriega et Noam Chomsky comptent également parmi les personnes interviewées. Le réalisateur a obtenu une interview exclusive avec le président Aristide en exil. La thèse du complot et de la déstabilisation délibérée, orchestrée par Washington, y est défendue avec vigueur, mettant au jour les intrigues politiques, les manipulations, les mensonges et les erreurs qui ont plongé à nouveau Haïti dans le chaos.The kidnapping of pro-Lavalas members continues. Following the kidnapping of Lovinsky Pierre-Antoine, Haitian police are now searching for the missing spokeswoman of Aristide's party. [read more]
