"Beyond the visual aspect, I hope that each spectator can feel what the night evokes for us Haitians, that they can understand that these tales are not only distant stories, but reflections of our perception of the world. I hope that this exploration of the night as a source of inspiration, emotion and deep connection to the past will touch the audience, arouse their curiosity, and perhaps even invite them to question their own myths and beliefs."
