- At Christmas 2003, New York-based film critic Godfrey Cheshire is visiting his family in North Carolina when his cousin Charlie Silver tells him something startling. Charlie inherited Midway Plantation, the ancestral home of his and Cheshire's extended family, and has been its devoted caretaker. But now Charlie and his wife Dena have made a decision: They want to move Midway - the antebellum manor house and several outbuildings - to a new location to escape Raleigh's encroaching sprawl. Can you really transplant a plantation? Will the "place" be the same if it is uprooted from the soil in which it has stood since 1848? Charlie's plan provokes immediate controversy in Cheshire's tradition-minded family. For Cheshire, it brings back memories of the wild, strange and magical place Midway seemed when he was a child, and of the stories he heard there - stories of his mother's family, the Hintons, settling the area in the early 1700s, fighting in the Revolution, being invaded by Yankee troops in the Civil War, and surviving Reconstruction. Yet stories, Cheshire realizes, both convey and conceal. The reality of the Southern plantation was that it depended on the institution of slavery. In Cheshire's family, stories of slaves always depicted them as happy and devoted, which surely disguised a more painful, complex reality. In fact, Midway bred two sets of Hintons, one white, one black. For years, they have rarely encountered each other. But that begins to change as Cheshire sets out to chronicle Charlie's attempt to move Midway.
- The movie uses the late-1960s racial integration of a prestigious private school, Virginia Episcopal School, to examine how one example of trailblazing African-American academic excellence both reflected the convergence of education and activism in the Civil Rights era and now challenges the resurgence of American racism and the re-segregation of U.S. schools. The story is told from the point-of-view of filmmaker and author Godfrey Cheshire, who was a white teenager entering V.E.S. in 1967 when Bill Alexander and Marvin Barnard became the first black students admitted to the school. Using archival footage and interviews with Alexander, Barnard and other V.E.S. students and faculty, Cheshire recalls the Southern racial attitudes of the time but also how the two black students rapidly gained the reputation of academic superstars. He then jumps back a year to chronicle the behind-the-scenes battle fought by headmaster Austin Montgomery to integrate the school, a struggle that involved a pioneering Southern philanthropist and the Episcopal Church. Despite the eventual success of the integration effort, 50 years later Charlottesville, Va., was the scene of a lethal white supremacist rally that called into question the advances of previous decades. While Cheshire follows the building of an African-American community and an emerging black political consciousness at V.E.S. after Alexander and Barnard's first year, he also looks at the ways that regressive racial attitudes today are presenting new obstacles for young blacks.
