Projections of films at outdoor locations in poor neighborhoods without electricity, the goal is to unite, entertain and educate through cinema.
NEED: Only 32% of households in Haiti have access to electricity and even fewer families own televisions or radios. Access to educational programming, news and entertainment is thus extremely limited.
RESPONSE: A customized truck with built-in generator and projector will travel to the slums of Port-au-Prince showing free outdoor projections of Creole-dubbed and French language feature films and documentaries that are part of the library of the Festival Film Jakmèl. These films will be interspersed with public service announcements and short promotional videos that address social, environmental and economic issues in a non-political manner.
