The film is based on Bob Zellner‘s autobiography The Wrong Side of Murder Creek. Zellner was the son and grandson of Ku Klux Klan members. A synopsis of the film reads, “A grandson of a Klansman comes of age during the early 60’s in the deep South and eventually joins the Civil Rights Movement.” Son of the South stars Cedric The Entertainer as civil rights leader Ralph Abernathy, Lucas Till as Zellner, Lex Scott Davis, Lucy Hale, and Julia Ormond, and is from executive producer Spike Lee.
