Résumés(1)

SWEET MICKY FOR PRESIDENT follows Pras Michel, the founder of the hip-hop group The Fugees, as he returns to his homeland of Haiti after the 2010 earthquake and finds a corrupt government in paralysis. With no experience or money, Pras mobilizes a presidential campaign for the unlikeliest of candidates: Michel Martelly aka Sweet Micky, Haiti's most popular and most controversial pop star. 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 despite the odds, they never give up on their honest dream of changing the course of Haiti's future forever. (texte officiel du distributeur)
