DOWN IN THE DELTA begins in Chicago, where Loretta (Alfre Woodard) lives with her mother and two children. Loretta is headed down a destructive path as she succumbs to the drug and alcohol-ridden streets of her neighborhood.
In efforts to pull her daughter and grandchildren (Mpho Koaho
and Kulani Hassen) out of harm's way, Loretta's mother Rosa Lynn (Mary Alice) pawns her
most valuable and prized family heirloom and moves the family back to their ancestral home
down in the Mississippi delta.
