Checkerboard

France

1959

1h 35m

Southern sleaze meets art in bizarre French film, mixing sex and racism, scored with sultry jazz, and served with a healthy dose of cynical humor. The small town of Cicada is a "lost paradise" of poverty and racial tension. Things turn nasty when lily-white Army veteran Bob asks lovely black-skinned Bessie to the Saturday night dance.
