The Gullah Geechee are the descendants of enslaved people who escaped their captors. The Gullah Geechee Historical Corridor extends roughly from Pender County, North Carolina, to St. Johns County (from the sea and barrier islands to 30 miles inland). This festival screens three classic documentaries that highlight the history and culture of these Americans. From Whence We Came (2017), The Language You Cry In (1998) and Family Across the Sea (1991).
