Synopsis

In the South of 1959, horrific events over a three-day Easter weekend prove to a hard-working albino white man that he fits in better with the 'coloreds' than he does with his own 'white folk.' With gritty realism and wondrous mysticism, Angel's Oracle focuses on the microcosm of Angel, Mississippi - America from 1859 to 1959 to the present. Angel's Oracle tells the story of free will, race relations, religion's influence on capitalism, the love of one brother for another, and the power of myth, religion, and history to shape love and hate, and to sway man toward failure and redemption.
