America's Dream

Three tales of African-American characters. "Long Black Song": a farmer with an unfaithful wife. "The Boy Who Painted Christ Black": school principal defends a controversial work by his student. "The Reunion": a jazz singer recalls her troubled youth.

Három XX. századi történet az afrikai amerikaiak életéből. Az elsőben egy iskolaigazgató egyik diákja feketebőrű Krisztust rajzol a keresztfára. A második történetben egy szegény fekete földművest egy fehér férfival csal meg a felesége, a harmadikban pedig egy sikeres jazzénekesnő emlékszik vissza nyomorúságos gyermekkorára.
