Long métrage documentaire tourné à trois endroits aussi éloignés les uns des autres : la Louisiane, l'Acadie et le Québec, mais où l’on joue Le reel du pendu – une pièce musicale interprétée au violon, à l’harmonica, à la guitare ou à l’accordéon depuis plus de deux cents ans. À travers cette musique improvisée d'un condamné à mort, le spectateur est invité à découvrir pour son compte « le son des Français d'Amérique ».

    This is a wonderful find for our family. Our grandfather, Isom Fontenot, is the harmonica player. Would like to know what year this was and are there any others you may have. Thanks for publishing this. Our family has been looking for a long time. There is also a video of his funeral back in 1972. Would you know of this? Thanks, Christine Aucoin
