Storyline
In Jacmel, Haiti, life is shaped by the sea, the churches, and the spirits. Marie Madeleine is a free woman. Living as a prostitute, she navigates the night, refusing to submit to the rules of those who claim to save souls. Her path crosses that of Joseph, a young evangelist. A relationship forms between these two polar opposites. As Joseph’s faith begins to waver, Mary Magdalene draws him into a world where desire and the quest for freedom open up a space where everything can be reinvented.
