The story

The film has no overarching storyline, consisting of a series of unconnected scenes celebrating the advent of sound technology in the context of "black music". Hearts in Dixie unfolds as a series of sketches of life among American blacks. Although the characters are not slaves, they are nevertheless racial stereotypes in terms of the contemporary white images of the period.
