While Haiti has in recent years been portrayed primarily via images of the devastation wrought by the 2010 earthquake, it has long been one of the lush jewels of the Caribbean. Much of the country escaped the brunt of the damage and is once again ready to seduce its visitors. In “Undiscovered Haiti With José Andrés,” Andrés brings this vibrant side of Haiti alive, exploring ancient waterfalls and untouched coastlines, hunting for land crabs and mythical mushrooms in its verdant forests, and tasting local specialties on the bustling streets of Port-au-Prince.

Viewers join their passionate guide in exploring historic sites such as the Citadel and a 150-year-old rum factory, experiencing the country’s authentic traditions and rituals, from making cassava bread to midnight gatherings with vodou priests. Along the way, Andrés meets special guests including former President Bill Clinton and Chef Mario Batali. Throughout the documentary, viewers experience the indomitable spirit and infectious joie de vivre of the Haitian people.
