Haiti-born, Congo-raised, Germany and France-educated, award-winning director Raoul Peck is at it again. His newest film is Murder in Pacot, a mystery-thriller about life in a suburb of Port-au-Prince shortly after the 2010 earthquake in Haiti. According to Indiewire, the film is inspired partly by a 1968 film by Italian filmmaker Paolo Pausini.

Peck is a very accomplished filmmaker. Have yet to see one of his best films Sometimes in April, but I have seen segments of Lumumba.

Murder in Pacot was screened at the Toronto International Film Festival last year. It was also show in Berlin.

Recently, the journalist Pooja Bahtia interviewed Peck regarding his craft. You can read the article on Ozy by CLICKING HERE.
