Produced by Barry Jenkins (Moonlight), All Dirt Roads Taste of Salt is the impressionistic and experimental debut feature film from award-winning poet, photographer, and filmmaker Raven Jackson. All Dirt Roads Taste of Salt weaves a life-spanning story of Mack, a Black woman in Mississippi, through the tender embraces and indelible memories that mold her life. Jackson crafts a stunning portrait of Black life's profound intimacy that is unafraid to challenge the expectations of Black film through innovative editing, sparse dialogue, and striking cinematography. All Dirt Roads Taste of Salt is a cinematic vision of how memory, touch, and the environment come to define someone’s life.
