Little Satchmo
Directed by John Alexander
Louis Armstrong, a symbol of American musical genius sketched as a culturally convenient caricature that nearly erased one of his dearest loves: a daughter hidden from the world, until now.
To the world, Louis Armstrong is iconic — a symbol of musical genius, unparalleled success, and unassailable character.
To Sharon, he was simply Dad.
Little Satchmo is a contemporary reconsidering of Louis Armstrong's life and legacy through his relationship with the daughter whom the public never knew existed. Made with the participation of Armstrong's daughter, Sharon Preston-Folta, the film seeks to correct a historical narrative that has foundered in caricature for too long while exploring the impact of a father and child relationship at the heart of self identity and understanding legacy.
