The Segregated South a power keg ready to explode after the passage of the '1964 Civil Rights Act.' Our nation did just that with assassinations, race riots, fires and the War raged in Vietnam. See why Integration is a great blessing, yet a curse in this story of young love, prejudice, sex, humor, and tragedy. Against the backdrop of all this turmoil, bigotry and racism, in North Carolina a laid back River Called Heaven flows. A sanctuary for this multiracial band of brigands, challenges the segregated South and bigoted North.
