"The Winding Stream" tells the story of the the Carters and the Cashes, America's roots-music dynasty. Starting with the Original Carter Family -- A.P., Sara, and Maybelle -- the film traces the ebb and flow of their influence, the transformation of their act into the Carter Sisters and Mother Maybelle, the marital alliance between June Carter and Johnny Cash, and the efforts of present-day family members to keep the legacy alive. "The Winding Stream" covers the full sweep of this epic saga through interviews with Johnny Cash (speaking just weeks before his death), Rosanne Cash, Janette Carter, and a stellar array of admiring musicians. The film features not only archival performances by the family but new musical tributes by artists such as John Prine, George Jones, Sheryl Crow, Kris Kristofferson, and the Carolina Chocolate Drops. Variety writes: "'The Winding Stream' is cogent and compelling as a pop-culture history lesson, and genuinely uplifting while it shows how contemporary artists -- along with descendants like Rosanne and John Carter Cash -- keep the legacy of A.P., Mother Maybelle, June and Johnny alive and thriving."
