Welcome to the Following Films podcast! I'm Chris Maynard, your host. Today, we have a special episode featuring William Hellmuth and J. Scott Worthington the director and writer of DIXELAND. DIXIELAND is set in the civl war and centered on a black Union physician, Charles Colster, played by Tony Todd. After his regiment is destroyed, Charles flees into the Virginian woods, stumbling on a Confederate soldier hiding in a cave; they share a fire, and try to find a moment of understanding before the sun comes up. Before we begin our conversation with the filmmakers, I would like to thank our sponsor, Bookmans, an independent bookstore that believes in the magic of storytelling and the cinematic arts. If you're looking to expand your collection of films, music, or books, visit your nearest Bookmans and discover something truly wonderful.
