'Sexy, funny, sociopolitically spot-on, and thrillingly alert and  
alive in its presentation of popular American music and dance'
Geoff Andrew, Time Out

Routes is a road movie through the dance and music of the American  
Deep South. Inspired by Harry Smith’s Anthology of American Folk  
Music (and evocative of Maya Deren’s seminal Meshes Of The  
Afternoon), Alex Reuben’s film offers an idiosyncratic documentation  
of lesser-known forms of American culture, and the extraordinary  
dancing Americans of the Deep South. From North Carolina to the Holy  
Grail of his childhood hero, Fats Domino, and the Jazz of New  
Orleans, Reuben captured on the road Appalachian Bluegrass, Clogging,  
Mississippi Fife and Drum Blues, Krumping, Memphis Hip-Hop, Indian  
Smoke Dance, Louisiana Cajun, Zydeco and Swamp Pop, all in a vivid  
stream of sound and vision.
