Details: The complexities of race, class, and sexuality collide within a Memphis community in the strikingly raw debut feature from director Ira Sachs. With neorealist immediacy, The Delta tells what at first appears to be a simple love story: two young men—Lincoln (Shayne Gray), a closeted white teenager, and Minh (Thang Chan), a Black Vietnamese immigrant—meet at a cruising spot and embark on a nighttime journey by boat down the Mississippi River. But soon, imbalances of power and privilege emerge between them, as the film develops into a devastating vision of lost, wounded souls reaching out in the dark for human connection. DIRECTOR-APPROVED BLU-RAY SPECIAL EDITION FEATURES • New 2K digital restoration, supervised and approved by director Ira Sachs, with uncompressed monaural soundtrack • Audio commentary from 2001 featuring Sachs • New interview with Sachs, conducted by film critic Keith Uhlich • Two short films by Sachs: Vaudeville (1991) and Lady (1993) • English subtitles for the deaf and hard of hearing • PLUS: An essay by author and film curator Michael Koresky
