Movie info

Synopsis

On the sun-drenched palm-fringed paradise island of Haiti at the end of the 1970s, Brenda, Ellen and Sue, three North American women, look for flirtation, relaxation and respite from their mundane jobs and marriages. They find exactly what they are looking for in Legba, an enigmatic local Adonis-like boy, whose beauty and passion captivates them all and who leads them away from the gilded cage of tourism and opens their eyes to the poverty and dangers of living in Haiti in the midst of the “Baby Doc” Duvalier dictatorial regime.
