City of a Million Dreams documentary is a snapshot of New Orleans jazz funerals, famous the world over with origins shrouded in mystery. Filmed over twenty-two years, City of a Million Dreams explores race relations at a tearing time in American society. Burial traditions train a lens on the unique and resilient culture of New Orleans. City of a Million Dreams draws from the 2018 book of the same title by Jason Berry. Screening will be followed by a post-film discussion and celebratory party featuring the sounds of New Orleans with Righteous Few Brass Band, who will be performing around 6:30 pm.
This screening is part of Southern Circuit Tour of Independent Filmmakers, a program of South Arts in partnership with National Endowment for the Arts.
