Working with rare found footage and new interviews with jazz legends such as Billy Taylor, George Wein, Mark Murphy and Ruth Price, as well as the final concert footage and last interviews Jackie Paris ever gave - De Felitta constructs an emotional mystery story which asks the question, who or what is to blame when a great talent goes from sensation to footnote during their life span?
Tis Autumn: The Search For Jackie Paris is not just a documentary about a great but unheralded jazz singer. It is a film that explores the very nature of what it is to live the life of an artist-any artist.
