“
In thirty-five seconds, more than 200,000 inhabitants of the island of Haiti died and nearly a million and a half were thrown into the streets.
A terrible earthquake struck and devastated this country already plagued by poverty and poor infrastructure.
In the midst of this chaos, a love triangle will take place with an adulterous First Lady in search of redemption, a cuckolded President of the Republic who will regain courage and an arrogant expatriate businessman who will become humanitarian in spite of himself.
