Copasetic is the story of two families. The Stahlinkoviches are klezmorim (Jewish musicians) from Eastern Europe. The Carters are African American sharecroppers from the Mississippi Delta, home of the blues. Both families migrate to Chicago at the beginning of the twentieth century. Their lives intertwine like the notes to the score of the American experience.
