"Boneshaker" follows a Ghanaian immigrant family taking a road trip to a Pentecostal church in Louisiana to cure their violent daughter. As the family journeys to a tent revival at the ends of the levee-less Louisiana delta, they discover the complications of trying to perform a traditional ritual away from home. "Boneshaker" focuses on the feelings of homelessness, landlessness, and rootlessness that accompany immigration.
