Nominated for a 2009 Blues Music Award
“Undoubtedly the most entertaining, most watchable blues documentary
I have ever seen.”
– Ricky Stevens, Blues Foundation
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
This timely road movie explores the thriving underbelly of a dying American art form in the land where it began -- Mississippi. A weeklong journey through the birthplace of the blues, M For Mississippi captures the proverbial "real deal" in its home where it is most comfortable and authentic -- the jukes, the front yards, the cotton fields.

“[Performs] a mission not dissimilar to what Ry Cooder set out to achieve when he recorded and filmed the musicians of the Buena Vista Social Club.”
– Vanity Fair
