Synopsis
A hauntingly beautiful tale set at the turn of the century on one of the sea islands off the Georgia coast. Daughters of the Dust portrays the unique culture of the Gullah people by focusing on an extended family's struggle with the decision to leave the island and move north. This film is a landmark achievement in African-American cinema.
