Daughters of the Dust (1991)
At the dawn of the 20th century, a multi-generational family in the Gullah community on the Sea Islands off of South Carolina–former West African slaves who adopted many of their ancestors' Yoruba traditions–struggle to maintain their cultural heritage and folklore while contemplating a migration to the mainland, even further from their roots. Directed by Julie Dash.
