Down in the Delta (1998)
Manchmal sind es die unscheinbaren Dinge, die das Leben vollkommen verändern können! Der Sommer in der Heimat ihrer Familie soll Lorettas Leben für immer verändern. Ein Leben, das nach Veränderung schreit - ein Leben am Rande des Abgrunds in der härtesten Gegend Chicagos! Bereits bei ihrer Ankuft in Mississippi wird Loretta von der Herzenswärme und Weisheit ihres Onkels Earl überwältigt. Aber ihre Anwesenheit erweckt auch Neugier und Missgunst in der eingeschworenen Gemeinde des Deltas. Langsam beginnt die junge Frau zu begreifen, wie wichtig familiäre Bande sind. Vor allem als es heißt, einen alles entscheidenden Entschluss zu fassen...
