The independently operating and very productive filmmaker Everson has made many films about the working-class culture of black Americans. Now he presents a serenade to the black inhabitants along the Tombigbee River: his family, a barber, a lock keeper, passers-by. They use the river for many different purposes. In long shots on 16mm stock, Everson shows a water skier, a lock filling up and a baptism in the same river that caused so much misery.
