****************************************
Equal parts amusing and disturbing, Natchez takes viewers on a journey through an antebellum tourist destination in Mississippi as it grapples with a deeply troubled history that is so thoroughly ingrained in its present, we’re left to wonder if it’s actually past at all.
Named one of the Top 5 Documentaries of the Year by the National Board of Review and winner of Best Documentary Feature at the Tribeca Film Festival, the new film by director/producer Suzannah Herbert captures an unsettling clash between history and memory in a small Mississippi town; a layered mosaic of people contending with the weight of the past in a place where it is always present.
****************************************
Please stay after the film for a special discussion with Natchez producer and award-winning documentary filmmaker Darcy McKinnon, whose work focuses on the American South and the Caribbean. Currently based in New Orleans, Darcy is a Tampa native who once worked as part of Tampa Theatre’s front-of-house team!
