- D'Lo Mississippi is a quaint and quirky town straight from the 1950's; nobody locks their doors, everybody knows everybody and life is idyllic for its residents. There's only one problem for this town of 456, Main Street is shut down, people are moving to the city at alarming rates and it's very possible that D'Lo may cease to exist. Mayor John Henry Berry is a fourth generation D'Lo native and perhaps the most passionate, hands-on public servant in America. The white-suit-wearing, golf-cart-driving, firebrand campaigned on the promise that he would restore D'Lo to its former glory and he now has four years to do it. John Henry has developed an ambitious, 95 point plan to save his beloved town and, just as importantly, preserve a way of life that is dying all across America. But Mayor Berry's revitalization efforts are constantly complicated by the demands of his other duties as the town arbitrator, dog catcher, landscaper, sewer repairman, volunteer fireman, high school football announcer, Parish drummer and 4H Firearms Instructor.
- 'Blues Before Sunrise' is a documentary that captures a few of the remaining authentic Delta Bluesmen and their intensely personal and powerful music. Their roots lead directly back to Robert Johnson, Howl'n Wolf, Muddy Waters, and a time when pick'n cotton under the radiating heat of the southern United States sky birthed what we now call the blues. The film is shot without a presenter, the narrative is told entirely through the experiences and stories of each legend interjected only with shots of the landscape. Whether using four-string diddley bows made of recycled tool boxes, or a harmonica picked from a box littered with old dusty and worn down pieces of metal, the humanity and passion of the music encompasses the milky, raw, and organic sounds that changed the world forever.

- VOICES FROM THE SIT IN is the true story of a protest, told by those who lived it. Delta State University, in Cleveland, Mississippi, was segregated from 1925 to 1965. The school enrolled its first Black students in 1966. These first students struggled for recognition, for inclusion, and for fair treatment. By the Spring of 1969, as tensions rose, Delta State's Black students organized a series of actions and protests. These actions culminated in the quickly-escalating events of Monday, March 10, 1969. In VOICES FROM THE SIT IN, the forgotten history of this moment is revealed. We meet the original students involved and relive the tense experience of a significant moment in the Civil Rights movement, exploring history almost unknown to students today. VOICES FROM THE SIT IN features protesters Maggie Daily Crawford, Mary Carter, Talmadge Davis, and Muriel McCraney Lucas; 1969 student government association president James W. Powers; Delta State professors Georgene Clark and Dr. Charles Westmoreland; and current student Sykina Butts, who has been recording an oral history of the participants' stories. Filmed by current Delta State students, this 27-minute documentary brings to life an important story through lived experiences recalled across five decades.
