There's a long and quiet road to the Mississippi Delta. In Tunica, water oak and hickory trees beckon visitors to the town's main attractions. The air is thick and still. But for 26 years, the Jus' Blues Music Foundation has returned to a home of the soul-stirring music that has carried Black folks across centuries. Inside a casino, the Blues come alive and Jim Alexander's lens has ensured that the music -- and the culture of its people -- will never die. Jus' Blues celebrates America's original art form with a conference on the music industry; awards to honor legends and up-and-comers; a wealth of performances; and a good ol' white linen fish fry.
In "Shadow Dancing (2022)," the crowd forgets about life's stresses and lets the music lead them into the night.
