Scribe Video Center hosts internationally acclaimed filmmaker RAOUL PECK for screenings of two of his latest films: MOLOCH TROPICAL and the provocative documentary FATAL ASSISTANCE.

Hailed by critics as “gripping” (New York Times), “audacious” (Variety), and “brilliant” (Premiere), Peck’s MOLOCH TROPICAL is a dramatic feature film about a president of a Caribbean island nation and his final day in office. (Haiti/France 2009 107 min)

Peck’s feature documentary FATAL ASSISTANCE takes us on a 2-year journey inside the challenging, contradictory and colossal rebuilding efforts in post-earthquake Haiti. (Haiti, 2013, 99 min)
