Gospel on the hill


In the tradition of black American music, more than 40 singers, actors, musicians and dancers will share the fervor, joy but also the penalties of an ever overflowing parish life!

In 1954 Laplace, a small town between Baton rouge and New Orleans, the Reverend Gideon can not stand the proximity between his church and the cabaret "Alcazar" Jazz of the temple, where all is pleasure, lust and lightness.

He decided to buy land at the top of the hill of St Jean, to build his new church and its followers and out of this "den of iniquity."

This decision and the roughness of the slope divide the members of his parish into two opposing clans: those who want to stay in this underworld and hot Beauregard area and those who prefer to live their faith to the rhythm of the Gospel, far from the "place of debauchery ".dropoff window

In the black community still subject to segregation laws, Rosa Lamour undisputed star of Jazz and John, carpenter apprentice avid fan of rock n 'roll, try to live their touching love story.
