KING OF KINGS nous plonge dans la vie et l’héritage d’Edward Jones, un petit fils d’esclaves devenu l’un des hommes les plus riches des États-Unis dans le Chicago de l’entre-deux-guerres. Bien qu’ayant tracé le destin d’une ville, il n’a pas pu échapper à sa couleur de peau. Pourchassé par le gouvernement, tour à tour ennemi et ami de la mafia italienne, il a été forcé à fuir toute sa vie...

En tant que petite-fille d'Edward Jones, je vais mettre en lumière les répercussions de cette histoire cachée, pas seulement dans ma famille mais également dans le sud de Chicago, où il incarna le rêve américain.

🩸À la poursuite d’Edward Jones🩸

Le légendaire Quincy Jones s’est associé comme producteur exécutif à la réalisatrice Harriet Marin Jones, petite-fille d’Edward Jones, pour raconter survoler 60 ans d’histoire américaine à travers les yeux d’un homme qui avait presque tout, mais en ces temps de ségrégation, sa réussite et son soutien sans faille à la communauté afro-américaine dérangent.

Menacé par le Ku Klux Klan, traqué par la mafia et le gouvernement, son destin est aussi épique que sulfureux.
