Plantation Black

Synopsis

PLANTATION BLACK is a compelling tale that unfolds through two distinct timelines, delving into the history of the Prioleau family. For nearly two centuries, since 1822, the Loch Dhu Plantation in South Carolina has remained under the ownership of the Prioleau family, comprising both White owners and the Black slaves they once possessed. In the year 2017, the White Prioleau descendants reach out to their Black counterparts in an attempt to resolve the ownership of the land and the distribution entitlements. They all have the same last name and share common biological ancestors. However, their bonds are as deep as the paper claiming half of the Prioleau tree as property.
