Kafou

Set in Haiti, Doc, a calculated man desperate to save his sick mother, gets a job from an organized crime boss. Teaming up with Zoe, a man he barely knows, he's put in charge of driving a car through the city under the cover of night to a drop off point. Here's the catch: there's something in the trunk, but they're not allowed to open it. In the gritty streets of Port-Au-Prince, riddled with stray dogs and dirty cops, the two men frantically attempt to get the car to its destination in the face of unforeseen obstacles.
