Pluie D’espoir Movie DVD To Be Released at Last




In an exclusive note given to Kreyolicious.com, it has been revealed that the long wait for the DVD version of Pluie D’espoir is nearing its end. The DVD’s release is slated for November of this year! Let’s not forget that Pluie D’espoir was initially shown in movie theaters in Haiti in 2005, and had a showing at a couple of festivals in the USA, most notably the Fort Lauderdale Film Festival. But the fact that the movie was bootlegged and sold in some stores in communities like Boston, Miami, Fort Lauderdale, and New York, put a real damper on the hopes of filmmaker and screenwriter Jacques Roc.

Roc promises to reward fans for waiting for the official version. The film will come with Dolby sound, and there will be about a dozen scenes that were, of course, not part of the pirated DVD version, in addition to other extras.

Roc’s next project is a film called Emilia.

Stay posted by regularly visiting the movie’s website.

Update: The film can be ordered on DVD through this LINK.

ABOUT K. St Fort K. St. Fort is the Editor and Founder of, well, Kreyolicious.com and wishes to give you a heartfelt welcome to her site. She loves to read, write, and listen to music and is fascinated by her Haitian roots, and all aspects of her culture. Speaking of music, she likes it loud, really, really loud. Like bicuspid valve raising-loud. Her other love are the movies. She was once a Top 50 finalist for a student screenwriting competition, encouraging her to continue pounding the pavement. She has completed several screenplays, with Haiti as the backdrop, one of which tackles sexual abuse in an upper middle class Haitian family, while another has child slavery as its subject. She is currently completing another script, this time a thriller, about two sisters who reunite after nearly 10 years of separation. A strong believer in using films to further educational purposes, and to raise awareness about important subjects, she has made it a point to write about social issues facing Haiti, and making them an integral part of her projects. She has interviewed such Haitian-American celebrities as Roxane Gay, Garcelle Beauvais, Jimmy Jean-Louis, Briana Roy, Karen Civil, and many, many more. And that’s her writing this whole biographical sketch. She actually thinks writing about herself in the third person is cute.
