Melvin Van Peebles, still a most playfully inventive filmmaker after nearly 50 years, returns with a boisterous adventure. Peebles himself plays a former adventurer who begins to recall his wild and wacky adventures from his teenage years to middle-age. Through flashbacks, the 75-year old filmmaker plays the unforgettable protagonist at every age in this semi-autobiographical story that takes you from the streets of Harlem to the high seas.
"Melvin Van Peebles strikes back! He has just reinvented himself as Jim and Huck Fin rolled into one...unbelievable and surprisingly effective." -Variety
