Already unlocked? for access

Drawing deeply from their Southern landscapes, these short narrative films each touch upon unique elements of the Southern Gothic genre. Whether through supernatural tenors in rural churches, to improbable encounters with those who have long passed, these characters’ grappling with isolation, wildness, or rural histories are central elements to their stories. 

A young Black Caribbean Immigrant attempts to assimilate into an all-white church in 1970s Raleigh, North Carolina.
