Old South

About This Movie

Old South dives into a cultural clash in Athens, Georgia, where a fraternity flying the Confederate flag parks itself in a historically Black neighborhood. The film’s tone is tense, capturing the heaviness of tradition versus progress. It unfolds slowly, allowing you to soak in the neighborhood's reactions and the parade that feels both surreal and provocative. The pacing feels deliberate, almost unnerving, with moments that linger on the faces of residents as they grapple with their history. What stands out is the rawness of the performances—real people responding to real issues—and the exploration of Southern cultural legacies, making it a haunting watch that sticks with you long after the credits roll.
