Through Massachusetts’s cinema history, Haitian movie filmmakers have never accomplished what Hans Patrick Domercant
Through Massachusetts’s cinema history, Haitian movie filmmakers have never accomplished what Hans Patrick Domercant has accomplished this past weekend with the world premier of San Papye (Undocumented), a movie about the plights of a Haitian professional who went through hell and back in order to get a green card. Mr. Domercant set the record straight by showing other filmmakers how movie making should be done. He has become the catalyst that has opened the doors for other Haitian cinematographers in Boston. The event began by the limo pulling up in front of the University of Massachusetts’ 100 Morrissey Boulevard building. Then as if a hurricane was approaching, the limos were swarmed with photographers who couldn’t get enough of the lead actor, Marcus Darbouze, who embraced the big screen and captivated the audience with his acting abilities and his ability to emotionalize such an important issue facing our community. Marcus was dressed in a beige, double-breasted, Stacy Adams suite with brown Maurice shoes. His smile was infectious as he waved to the waiting crowd. The other ators dressed in their finest attires surrounded him as he gracefully walked the red carpet. According to Barbara Cajuste, who played the role of Esther in the movie, “ I have another level of appreciation for Mr. Darbouze! This mans acting ability is unbelievable and he knows how to keep the audience at the edge of their seats. We have a lot to learn from him.” Marcus has played numerous lead roles in many low-budget films, which includes: Division, and Les Gens D’ici. By far, San Papye is his greatest accomplishment. He is now working on his new film, Drole d’Impasse, soon to be released spring of 08. The premiere had celebrities in attendance such as: Yvon Alteon of Tele Diaspora, Actress Blondedy Ferdinand who plays in several movies, and reputed Movie director Jean Gardy Bien Amé to name a few. Movie promoter Frantz Design from New York and the movie directors Gerard Nadere and Michelet Paul were also part of this event. It was also an occasion for Massachusetts officials to welcome the Boston Haitian Movie Industry through this first premiere. Ron Bell a representative of the governor's office handed out a citation award to Hans Patrick Domerçant the movie director who led the event. State Representative Linda Dorcena Dorcena Forry was one of the official who come to express her support to the Haitian Movie. Attorney Azizah Yasin an immigration specialist also offered her input in this occasion.
