520 The Mississippi River Flood of 1927 was the most
destructive river flood in American history. In the spring
of 1927, the river broke out of its earthen embankments in
145 places and inundated 27,000 square miles. Part of its
legacy was the forced exodus of displaced sharecroppers,
who left plantation life and migrated to Northern cities,
adapting to an industrial society with its own set of
challenges. Musically, the Great Migration fueled the
evolution of acoustic blues to electric blues bands that
thrived in cities like Memphis, Detroit and Chicago
becoming the wellspring for R&B and rock as well as
developing jazz styles. THE GREAT FLOOD is a collaboration
between filmmaker and multimedia artist Bill Morrison and
guitarist and composer Bill Frisell inspired by the 1927
catastrophe.
520 The story, told without dialogue, of the Mississippi River
Flood of 1927, the most destructive in U.S. history and
the cause of a million people's displacement. Bill
Morrison, the acclaimed director of DESCASIA and Bill
Frisell, Grammy-winning composer and guitarist, have
teamed up to create a powerful new cinematic experience.
