Tatiana is creating a documentary Ulrickas as a love letter to the Haitian Diaspora to challenge negative stereotypes. It gives novices access to engaging, an often unknown, Haitian history and introduces the world to an underappreciated master visual artist Ulrick Jean-Pierre.

Tatiana will produce Freedom Denied, a featured length documentary that posthumously tells the story of Haitian Jean-Baptiste Edvard Pierre’s near decade-long battle for political asylum in the United States, as told by the attorneys and community activists who fought side-by-side for his freedom. Tatiana hopes this documentary will be a catalyst for a broader conversation about U.S. immigration policies, which would hopefully lead to changes of current laws.
