Vers le sud (2005)

English title: Heading South.

The world of female sexual tourism in Haiti is depicted. A newcomer arrives in search of a young man whom she had met in a previous visit; he has a relationship with a habituée of the place, and a conflict arises between the two.

Not without interest, but flawed because of poor writing which translates into weak cinematic content. Examples - I think it would benefit from a visual exposition of Legba's first encounter with Brenda; they chose to narrate this and the other two women's backgrounds through their talking to the camera, a very poor choice; second, the car ride sequence which serves as an exposition of Legba's troubles is very poorly done; third, Ellen's bursts of bitchiness, signaling her contradictions in regards to her true feelings, are too caricatural.
