This is the first feature-length documentary about the iconic Lorraine Motel in Memphis, Tennessee, and its owners, Walter and Loree Bailey. A safe haven for African Americans traveling during segregation and Jim Crow laws in the United States, the Lorraine is most widely remembered for one horrific event: the assassination of Martin Luther King Jr. on April 4, 1968, as he stood on the balcony outside Room 306.
This screening is part of Fall of Freedom. The Fall of Freedom (FoF) is a nationwide decentralized festival in celebration of art as central to a fair and free democracy. It is a community driven act of resistance, independence, and solidarity.
