“A poetic film that recreates how a touch or a sound can mean more than a phrase, and it has a remarkable balance between the specific and the lyrical.”—Brian Tallerico, RogerEbert.com

A lyrical, decades-spanning exploration across four generations of Black women in rural Mississippi, the feature debut from award-winning poet, photographer and filmmaker Raven Jackson is a haunting and richly layered portrait, a beautiful ode to the complex histories of people and places that shape us.  This selection of the Sundance Film Festival and the New York Film Festival was also produced by Barry Jenkins (Moonlight). 2023, U.S., DCP, 92 minutes. Rated PG.

Talk Cinema is programmed by the esteemed film critic and film curator Harlan Jacobson featuring a sneak preview screening of an art-house film prior to its release followed by a discussion. Be the first to see the latest films and to share your impressions.
