Last year, in the chaos of a devastating earthquake thousands of Haiti's worst criminals staged an escape from the National Penitentiary. FRONTLINE examines the uphill fight to rebuild Haiti in the face of deep-rooted corruption and intimidation. The film also offers intimate portraits of the fearful lives many Haitians are living, as the central government and judicial system routinely fail to maintain order.
