About the movie "Chabon" :
"The forests of Haiti are being destroyed, poverty is forcing many Haitians to risk their lives to illegally cut down trees and produce unsanitary charcoal. Unlike other films produced on the subject, Chabon will interview men and women directly involved in the sale and production of charcoal, providing insight into the genesis of an industry that continues to endanger the lives of desperate Haitians while destroying the national ecosystem..."

The documentary "Chabon" will be available soon online.
