Madame Pipi follows the lives of Haitian female bathroom attendants working in the nightclubs of Miami. Relatively invisible, underpaid, and underappreciated, their stories tell of a journey of triumph as they massage the patrons' temperaments for tips. Despite the rising cost of living and the uncertainty caused by COVID-19 shutting down nightlife, they fight on, knowing that the remittances the Haitian diaspora is able to send home constitute more than one third of Haiti's GDP.
