The third feature from auteur director Laurent Cantet, Heading South stars Charlotte Rampling.
This controversial film based on three short stories by the Haitian writer Dany Laferrière concerns a group of North American women involved in sex tourism during the late 1970s in Haiti. Sexual desire expressed by women over 45 is an unusual representation in films but even more so when it is placed in the context of a poor Caribbean country suffering under the regime of 'Baby Doc'.
