about

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.
