News Americas, Port-of-Spain, Trinidad, Tues. Aug. 25, 2015: The founding member of the Fugees is gearing up to premier his film at the upcoming Trinidad and Tobago Film Festival (TTFF) next month.
Grammy-winning rapper Pras Michel is set to promote his film Sweet Micky for President. The film follows Michel as he returns to his homeland of Haiti following the devastating earthquake of 2010 to mobilize a presidential campaign for Haiti’s most controversial musician: Michel Martelly aka Sweet Micky.
The politically inexperienced pair set out against a corrupted government, civil unrest, and a fixed election. When Pras’s former bandmate, superstar Wyclef Jean, also enters the presidential race, their chances seem further doomed. But with the help of a few friends, including Ben Stiller and former president Bill Clinton, they never give up on their honest dream of changing the course of Haiti’s future forever.
The Trinidad and Tobago Film Festival will run from the 15th to 29th September, 2015 and feature films from and about the region and its Diaspora.
Participants will also have the opportunity to network with some of the best local and international directors and film makers.
