Film Description

Almost eighty percent of the Haitian people are infected by intestinal worms, eating their nutritional intake and contributing to widespread hunger and starvation. At only two cents per pill, the medication provides the Haitian people with the energy needed to solve problems in their own country. Aaron Jackson and John Dieubon, a young American and Haitian, work together to solve this devastating problem. But when the earthquake of January 12th strikes, they must confront the biggest challenge of their lives. Bound by Haiti follows this unique partnership on a journey for change before and after one of the most catastrophic humanitarian events of our time.
