Films of William Ferris
The films collectively offer a portrait of the blues and of the secular and sacred influences on the form, centering on life in rural Mississippi on or near the Mississippi River. In addition to the music itself, the films document storytelling, folk art and crafts, architecture, prison life, and African-American religious expression.
