Melody Gardot - Preacherman

Inspired by the tragic true story of Emmett Till who was killed in a racially motivated murder in 1955, this is a music video for Melody Gardot's single Preacherman. It was directed by Calum Macdiarmid and shot over 4 days in the Mississippi Delta. The film features performances from local characters and an appearance from Emmett Till's cousin (the woman who puts her hand up to the glass at the end).
