La couleur pourpre

Alice Walker meets Barry Jenkins in 2023. A Black sharecropper writes letters to God during Jim Crow’s worst years, raising two children and weathering decades until a blues singer’s return cracks the silence. A soaring gospel finale and Fantasia Barrino’s voice carry the story.
