El festival concluye el domingo 28 de julio, a las 7:00 pm, con el estreno en Nueva York de “La Isla Rota” (Broken Island), dirigida por Felix German. La pel\u00edcula cuenta la historia de Guy, un ni\u00f1o haitiano quien escapa de la pobreza y presencia el asesinato de sus padres en la frontera dominicana. Protegido por una pareja haitiana que lo adopta, Guy crece trabajando en los campos de ca\u00f1a de az\u00facar del pa\u00eds y busca vengarse de Abes, el hombre que asesin\u00f3 a sus padres. La masacre militar de octubre de 1937 de m\u00e1s de 30,000 haitianos y dominicanos de ascendencia haitiana ordenada por el dictador Rafael Leonidas Trujillo, obliga sin embargo, a que Guy y a su amada Meuda salgan de Hait\u00ed en busca de una nueva vida.<\/p>\n
