Wow, this is amazing! Just think, how many other fascinating stories like this are there just waiting to be revealed about our people?

Lemercier's life and legacy intrigues me greatly as I now see him as a prominant figure in world history.

This film should be redone, and the Haitian community should be the first to do it before Hollywood attempts to buy the rights to solely tell this story, make a lot of money, and only tell the world half the truth!
