“One of the greatest American independent films ever made.”
—The New Yorker

Eighty years apart, the lives and loves of two couples are lyrically interwoven through the use of archival photography, ragtime, and African percussion. This moving portrait of the struggles of the Black American deaf and hearing communities also shows the complexity of romance at the turn of the twentieth century. A landmark of independent cinema from writer-director Zeinabu irene Davis. Preceded by Iverson White’s short DARK EXODUS.
