This film is available for sale on Half.com "A black New Orleans jazz musician flees to a remote coastal island in order to escape the wrath of a lynch mob. While hiding out on the island, he befriends a young white girl, much to the distrust of the island's sheriff, who is secretly involved with the girl. Once a search party from the mainland arrives to escort the musician back, the delicate veneer of trust which existed between the musician and the sheriff is shattered, and the sheriff must confront the truths about his crime, and more importantly, his own depraved nature."
