Purge This Land
PURGE THIS LAND is an essay film centered around the legacy of the radical abolitionist John Brown . The music for the piece was composed by my partner Jeff Parker (who plays in the band Tortoise and is a member of the AACM) and references black creative music coming out of Chicago and Detroit in the 1960's. He is also seen at the end of the film, along with my son. The title is taken from John Brown's letter of 1859: 'I...am now quite certain that the crimes of this guilty land will never be purged away but with blood.'

Way better than I thought it would be based on the previews.
Slow start, but worth watching.
Good acting, great direction, excellent cinematography.
I was not disappointed! I enjoyed this movie and will recommend it.
This movie caught me off guard. It is outstanding.
I had heard great reviews, but wasn't expecting to love it. Turns out, it was as good as people were saying!
I have to say to make such an impressive trailer and such an interesting film, takes great doing!
Awesome! It's not a die-hard documentary, but still the movie rocks.
Can watch it 10 times and still see new things you missed. Lee Anne Schmitt is a genius!
Such a crazy idea, thought, invention, creativity that blows our mind beyond conscious level.
