“MY FATHER’S LAND,” is a feature documentary, which explores the life of Papa Jah, a humble Haitian bushman and gardener. He has spent the last forty years in the Bahamas, building a life for himself and his children, while living in the marginalized Haitian community, “the Mud.”

As a strict deportation policy and growing xenophobia sweeps the country, news arrives of his 103 year old Father taking ill, back in Haiti. Fearing he may not see his Father before he passes, Papa Jah sets out on an adventure, traveling back through Haiti, to his family’s small village on the remote island of La Tortue, to reunite with his Father – hopefully before it’s too late.

Juxtaposed against the strikingly rich visual texture of the Caribbean, this travel adventure story, entertains through humor, intimate cultural spaces and vivid landscapes, while touching on socio­economic complexities of immigration, culture and identity.
