Trilogy of films about race and culture in the Deep South from the end of World War I to the civil rights protests of the 1960's. All three stories deal with fear and isolation, and the role of faith in the lives of those who venture alone into what is unknown around them.
Directors: Randy Brinson, Jim Eddins, Jim McMahan.
