Peace of Mind

About This Movie

So, 'Peace of Mind' is this intimate documentary that really gives you a glimpse into the life of Flo McGarrell, an American artist who poured his heart into the Haitian art scene before the earthquake hit. The pacing is contemplative, allowing you to soak in the interviews with local artists who reflect on Flo's influence and the queer movement that blossomed around the FOSAJ Art Center in Jacmel. The atmosphere is heavy with both hope and tragedy, capturing the vibrancy of life amidst looming chaos. It’s not flashy or overproduced, but that’s what makes it feel real. You get the sense of community and the weight of loss, which is rather striking and gives the film a unique edge in the documentary genre.
