Pacot is a fashionable district in Port-au-Prince. But it has not been spared any more than the rest of the Haitian capital from the devastation of the earthquake on 12th January 2010. A bourgeois couple camp in the ruins of their luxurious villa. To avoid its demolition, they rent out part of it to Alex, an employee of an NGO, and his provocative Haitian mistress, Andrémise. The drama comes to a head in a manner inspired by Pasolini’s Theorem.
