I cannot tell you exactly what is going to happen there tonight but I will be sure to bring you lots of pictures by tomorrow morning.

I did see the movie in a private screening set up for Belfim a while ago but Baby Love tells me that the movie is even better that what I saw.

What is the movie about?

In this new movie, Li Se Manman-m, you will be taken through a journey of a mother and father, desperate for a better life for their kids, who decide to leave the country side bound for Port-au-Prince.

belfim.com/pictures.php?p=2978&...There, they land in Cite Soleil, the biggest slum in the Haitian capital. The father spends his life working as a "Bouretye" and the mother walks the streets of Port-au-Prince as a "Ti Machann" only to be humiliated and forgotten by their only son who is so obsessed with "being a super star" and keeping up they the upper class that he vows never to let anybody know who he really is or where he is from.

He manages to cut all communication with his mother and father who worked so hard to send him to a good school.

Godnel Latus told Belfim that Li Se Manman-m was actually shot on location in Cite Soleil.

In a phone conversation with Smith Cassamajor who plays the role of the father (Joseph) in the movie, I asked him "What did it fee like pushing a Haitian wheelbarrow in the streets of Port-Au-Prince even though is was an act?"

"I've didn't grow up with a silver spoon in my mouth" says Smith, "but we didn't have to do that to survive. having had that experience, I've developed the utmost respect for those who find the courage to wake up everyday and do that for a living."

Li Se Manman-m is coming to theaters around mother's day in Haiti. it will be playing in Capitol and Imperial starting April 2008.
