AMERICAN RED AND BLACK


AMERICAN RED AND BLACK


The film follows its protagonist Vella, as she makes tentative forays into the Native American portion of her lineage.  This process leads her to consider a more expanded racial identity, despite the fact she has always thought of herself as an African American or Black woman.
 Vella's saga is interspersed with the stories and/or opinions of five other individuals: Tall Oak, Rick, Minty, Jolene and Sequoyah- all of whom possess strong multicultural identities.
