Enchanting and challenging, this film immerses us in a place and a community unlike any other, San Basilio de Palenque, the first free town in the Americas. The many rhythms of people’s lives weave in and around each other, creating a rich sense of the community’s bonds in a town that remains deeply connected to its African roots. The film’s power derives from the way it renders the town vivid, solid and palpable, all while offering us a sense of another form of being, one in which these living people are intimately connected with those who came before them.
