Godfrey Cheshire is an American film critic who had helped found Raleigh's Spectator Magazine and written for various publications such as The New York Times and more. In early 2004, he learns that his cousin Charlie wants to move the buildings of Midway Plantation. The documentary features interviews with many of the family members, who worry that moving the buildings would destroy Midway. Cheshire learns about the African-American branch of Midway, and reaches out to a NYU professor, Dr. Robert Hinton, who shows him a new perspective on the Midway.
The film features excerpts from Gone with the Wind, The Birth of a Nation, The Littlest Rebel, Jezebel, Song of the South, Uncle Tom's Cabin, and Roots, among others. Blues songs were performed by Algia Mae Hinton.
