In the Jim Crow–era setting of Clarksdale, Mississippi, Sinners follows twin brothers seeking a fresh start, only to confront a sinister vampire force lurking in their past. The atmosphere is thick with Southern Gothic tension, musical hallucinations, and moral reckonings.1

The original score was composed by longtime Coogler collaborator Ludwig Göransson, who created a personal and ambitious soundtrack deeply rooted in blues music, even using a 1932 Dobro Cyclops resonator guitar—the same instrument carried by Sammie in the film.
