Summary:

"Many descendants of enslaved people have little record of their family's ancestry. Follow one family's quest to discover their lost history and see how science and genealogy can help rebuild a family tree broken by slavery. Join filmmaker Byron Hurt at his extended family reunion as they celebrate the joy of family in the African diaspora and discover new details of their history that they thought were lost forever."--Container.
