Movie Synopsis: In the midst of Haiti’s mountains and historic relics lies an orphan epidemic. Over 500,000 children are forced to survive on their own, many of them wandering the streets day and night. Local residents call them the “soulless,” treating them like untouchable spirits from the underworld. Shot in the northern city of Cap-Haitian over a period of two years, Strange Things is a powerful documentary that follows the evolution of three young street boys who all too soon will be adults. Through their eyes, we come to understand Haiti’s current state of crisis and the reasons behind its abandoned youth problem, and are left inspired by the strength and courage of these young boys who do what it takes to survive.
