Inspired by the controversial true story of Zoe’s Ark, The White Nights takes on the moral ambiguities of charity to those whom are in no position to refuse or question. Fictionalizing this international travesty, The White Knights begins in war-ravaged Chad with the arrival of French adoption-agency workers. Working as an NGO called Move for Kids, its members claim they will house, feed, and educate orphans in a safe compound. While seemingly acting nobly, it becomes clear that these NGO workers may have ulterior motives, while still somehow believing themselves to be altruistic.
