Sweet Old Song

An intimate portrait of the extraordinary relationship between two African American artists who have been collaborating as musicians and visual artists since 1983.
Howard "Louie Bluie" Armstrong has been performing for most of his 91 years, ever since his father carved his first fiddle from a wooden crate. At the film's center are the two great loves of Howard's life: his music, and artist Barbara Ward. Their two-decade romance is a creative partnership yielding new work and an outpouring of memories, defying our most basic assumptions about what it means to grow older.
