Discover Haitian Filmmaking with Kidnapping Inc.

PORT-AU-PRINCE, HAITI, October 31, 2014 /EINPresswire.com/ -- Bruno Mourral has created the dark comedy film “Kidnapping Inc.” which is based on actual events. This film is intended to be a satire and a light-hearted way of looking at this serious social problem. In addition to attempting to face an underlying national problem, “Kidnapping Inc.” is also a vehicle to further the entire Haitian film industry. Bruno’s production company MUSKA is taking a negative situation in kidnapping, attempting to review it and also generating a positive result for people in his industry and country.

The Haitian people have a tendency to laugh at their pain and this movie would give all Haitians a chance to do so. Featuring a stellar cast including Jimmy Jean-Louis who is otherwise known as The Haitian on “Heroes”, this comedy film revolves around two delivery men named Doc and Zoe. These men work for Kidnapping Inc. which is the largest kidnapping corporation in Haiti. The pair is tasked with delivering a senator’s son who is worth a ransom of 300,000 dollars. Zoe kills the senator’s son through a misunderstanding. The duo then runs into the characters of Patrick and his very pregnant wife Laura. Patrick is a doppelganger of the senator’s son which makes him a valuable commodity. Their situation is made even more urgent by their wish to have their first child born in America. The emotion and reactions of the characters are a vital part of this movie. These interactions allow the movie to confront the complexity of everyday Haitian life by offering an understanding of social issues including discrimination. The end result is a mix which lies somewhere between City of Gods and Pulp Fiction.

“Kidnapping Inc.” will be Bruno’s first feature film and he has extensive experience including over 50 commercials as well as recognition through several International awards. MUSKA Films lists its main goal as the development of the Haitian film industry. Founded in 2007, this young and growing production company offers full in-house creative and technical service from conception to the final product. This means that they have extensive control over their work. Most of the preproduction for this movie has been completed and MUSKA owns half of the filming equipment. There is a current Kickstarter crowdfunding campaign which will last until December 11th in order to assist with the remaining funding. The ultimate crowdfunding goal is 150,000 dollars which is quite reasonable for a movie production. Both production values and distribution values will be improved if that goal is exceeded.
