If our lives were to flood, what are the moments that would rise to the surface?

A rich and layered photographic exploration of the people and places that influenced Raven Jackson’s directorial debut film, All Dirt Roads Taste of Salt, the companion book features lyrical writing, evocative photos, and contributions from voices that speak to the film’s quiet yet powerful themes and the rural Southern setting. Also includes the full script and incredible photography captured during the production.
